Quick take
A glass minnow jig dressed with bright mylar and gloss paint, designed to flash and trigger strikes from inshore saltwater game fish.
This Tsunami Glass Minnow jig in chartreuse and white is 3 inches long and weighs half an ounce, a size suited to flounder and other inshore gamefish. Its two-tone color gives flounder anglers a bright, minnow-shaped option to work along the bottom. It is a practical choice for fluke and flounder trips in shallow coastal water.

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.
