Quick take
Soft swimbaits with realistic minnow action available in 2.75 in and 3.25 in, each pack includes one jig head.
The White Minnow at 2.75 inches is a soft swimbait for anglers who want a compact profile on a jig. It is meant to be rigged on a lead-head jig with the hook left exposed, and its swimming action is built in, so a slow, steady retrieve is all it needs. The bait swims well at slow speeds and in cold water, which makes it a useful option on cooler days.

Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
