Quick take
A balanced jigging minnow with single hooks that rises and falls on a vertical jig for panfish and bass.
A 3.5-inch metal-bodied jigging lure in Chrome Blue, weighing about half an ounce. It sinks quickly and has a minnow profile, a balanced shape and single reversed hooks. Anglers jig it vertically or cast it for bass.
Best for
- Ice fishing through the hole
- Vertical jigging in deep holes
- Panfish and small bass
Skip if
- You cast in open water
- You need a lure that suspends steadily
Strengths
- Balanced design creates natural rise-and-fall action
- Single reversed hooks reduce fouling in tight jigging
- Chrome blue finish works in stained to clear water
Trade-offs
- Single hooks do not hook fish as reliably as treble hooks
- At 3.5 in and 0.07 oz, the lure drops slowly through the water
- Works best in vertical jigging, not casting

About this type
