Quick take
A 2 inch sinking trout lure with tungsten weight and size #12 hook for small stream finesse fishing.
This Jackson Meteora is a 2-inch sinking minnow that weighs 5 grams and carries #12 hooks. Its flat sides and low center of gravity help it hold steady in moving water, and on a pause it drops with a light horizontal flutter. It suits anglers who work current with short twitches and pauses.

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.
