The Invisible Minnow Rig is the best way to cast or troll with a minnow. These rigs work effectively with minnows up to 3" in length. The unique minnow rig securely holds the minnow in place so it will not tear off or curl, providing the best presentation. The included slotted eye needle easily threads the rig down through the minnow's mouth and out the vent. The hook can then be placed on the rig and adjusted to your liking. The Invisible Minnow Rig places the hook toward the rear of the minnow, hooking those short striking fish. Works best for trout and panfish, can also be used for smaller bass.
