About this piece

Its extremely compact 52mm body hides a surprising 8.5g weight, enabling instant bottom contact in fast currents. This aggressive high-density body allows dynamic retrieves like fast up-rise twitching and countdown contact with deep pools, waking big trout that ignore standard minnows.
