Quick take
An 8-inch glow-white flasher that simulates wounded baitfish and trolls ahead of lures.
This 11 inch flasher in a multi-color pattern is built to flash and vibrate ahead of a lure or bait, with a minnow-like wobble that suits trolling for salmon and trout. Its plastic body and swivel-and-snap hardware make it a practical trolling attractor for anglers working deep, cold water. Pick it when you want a longer multi-color flasher for salmon and trout.

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.
