Quick take
A 2 5/8 inch suspending twitchbait that darts side to side on a twitch for saltwater species.
This hot pink, chartreuse and silver Mirrodine 17MR is a 2 5/8 inch, 3/8 ounce suspending twitchbait. It runs about two feet below the surface, a depth that fits shallow water where a twitching retrieve sends it darting side to side. Its bright colors and internal rattles make it an option for anglers who want a lure that draws attention in murky shallows.
Best for
- Sight-casting to redfish and tarpon
- Twitching over shallow grass flats
- Wounded baitfish patterns in clear water
Skip if
- You need a straight-retrieve lure
- You fish freshwater for largemouth bass
Strengths
- Suspend design holds in strike zone on the pause
- Dart action mimics wounded baitfish struggling
- Small size works in clear saltwater
Trade-offs
- Requires skilled twitch-retrieve technique
- Small size limits casting distance on heavy line
- Suspension depth requires tuning with line type

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.
