Quick take
This 5-1/4 inch floating diver in the Candy color weighs 5/8 oz and reaches about 3.5 feet. It floats back up during pauses, which makes a twitch-stop-go retrieve a natural fit. Anglers who like a realistic minnow profile with treble hooks will find it easy to work at shallow to mid depths.
