Quick take
Soft plastic swimbait minnows in 3.15 inches with holographic flash and needle tail for fresh and saltwater species.
A six-piece pack of soft silicone swimbaits measuring 3-1/8 inches, with a needle point for drop shot and similar rigs. The minnow-style body has a swimming tail and a brown color, and bass anglers are the main target, with walleye, pike, trout and redfish also among the fish it is meant for. It suits anglers who want several baits on hand for a day on the water.
Best for
- Pike and musky on light line
- Trout in streams and reservoirs
- Striped bass and redfish in saltwater
Skip if
- You fish heavy vegetation; the thin profile snags easily
- You need a lure that floats at rest
Strengths
- Holographic flash inserts and 3D eyes attract fish from a distance
- Silicone construction balances softness for natural movement with durability through casts
- Needle tail and compact body suited for finesse presentations
Trade-offs
- At 3 inches and lightweight, casting range is limited in wind
- Thin body takes time to find the right retrieve speed for each species
- Silicone material may absorb water over extended saltwater use

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
