The Sofbait: DAIWA BAIT JUNKIE 2.5 INCH MINNOW
The fastest-growing bait profile in the light tackle and freshwater angling community right now, the bite-sized boot tail swimbait is fast becoming a go-to for many anglers.
The Bait Junkie 2.5" Minnow is the first design that incorporates Bait Junkie's signature 'slim waist' design principle. This waist section segments the body into two parts, allowing the tail to move freely and thanks to the Elastomax construction. The durability of the bait is a non-concern.
A broad boot tail is connected to a thin tail wrist which delivers an insanely high-pitch vibration, capable of calling in predatory fish from long distances. The soft nature of Elastomax also means the 2.5" Minnow is capable of fishing on very light jigheads, still maintaining an enticing swimming action whilst sinking even when rigged on lightweight heads around 1/16oz.
Featuring rigging lines on the top for easy straight rigging, the Bait Junkie 2.5" Minnow comes in 7 different colours to suit both fresh & saltwater. With an assortment of solid and two-tone laminate colours there is sure to be one that suits any situation you may encounter.
The BaitJunkie 2.5" Minnow comes in 8 pieces per pack.
Specifications:
- Length: 63.5mm
- Type: minnow
- Jighead: #4-#1/0
