Description

Bass love spiraling and random darting actions! Enter the new Hover Minnow, featuring a unique concave belly, which offers both actions and is the only soft bait of its kind.
As the Cindy Rig, Moping, Mid-Strolling and Hover Strolling techniques have become more popular, fish are also becoming conditioned, making them harder to catch.
When vertically jigged, on the fall this bait will glide in a spiraling pattern and when jigged in place will dart in random directions, returning to center.
When fished horizontally through the water column any twitch of your rod tip will have the bait rolling, darting, and gliding in random directions.

The Great Lakes Finesse Hover Minnow is a versatile jig trailer designed to imitate the erratic movements of a jerkbait!

Its unique concave belly design produces lifelike spiraling and darting actions that trigger aggressive strikes from bass. As fish become increasingly pressured by traditional finesse techniques, the Hover Minnow's unpredictable swimming pattern stands out, making it an essential tool for catching wary fish.

Whether fished vertically or horizontally, this bait excels in various presentations, ensuring you're always ready to tempt big bass!

 

DEPS SLIDE SWIMMER 175

The new 2021 model's will come with a new soft shell and bumper fins (not pictured in color photos)

The Slide Swimmer 175 is a large, hard plastic swimbait designed to mimic large forage species such as trout, hitch and shad when targeting bass. The 7" Deps Slide Swimmer 175 displays the "glide" style action that has become incredibly popular over the past couple of years. 
Much of the bait's effectiveness has been attributed to its' completely silent nature and even the hinges of the jointed-body are precision engineered not to make a sound.
The bait's body is constructed from an ABS plastic injection molding process in contrast to the original foam used for the 250.
Outside, the bait is covered with a soft silicone skin and swims completely on its own free of any diving lip, also boasts an astounding level of detail, including accurate color finishes, 3D eyes and is finished with life-like scale patterns and gills.
Deps is one of the most popular bass fishing companies in all of Japan and with creations like the Slide Swimmer 175, they're starting to become a household name stateside as well.

Slide Swimmer Injected Benefits

  • Made out of ABS Plastic
  • Features soft silicon skin
  • The 175 will use Jointed 8 Rings to connect the bodies and for eye ties. This will aid in strength for a shorter sized bait.
  • The Silicon Skin will still be removable and the weights will still be on the outside of the body allowing for easy modification. The slide swimmers come standard with a Rate of Fall of about 5 feet per 10 seconds. Adding weight or taking away weight can be done with the new models.
  • Color line up options increases. The clear ABS plastic allows for ghost & clear coloring patterns. The original colors to date will also be available.
  • A Spring Weight is added to front body. With a slow steady retrieve the spring weight does not emit any sounds just like the original, but when the bait is jerked or fished with a faster retrieve the weighted ball bounces off of the walls of the bait producing fish enticing sounds and there is also a slight vibration as the bait falls.
