Quick take
A 150-170mm floating saltwater minnow with weight transfer system designed for long casting and erratic action.
A floating stickbait with a weight transfer system, designed to help casts reach distance into a headwind. It dives roughly 1 to 3 feet on a standard retrieve, and its 3X treble hooks sit on heavy split rings. Bass and walleye anglers working shallow edges and weed lines can use it as a floating option for the upper water column.
