Introducing the Imakatsu Gillroid Minnie Swimbait, affectionately known as the ‘Little Giant’ of the Gillroid series. This compact yet mighty lure inherits all the unique rigging options and meticulous attention to detail of its predecessor, offering anglers exceptional versatility in a reduced size that fishes akin to a crankbait.

Crafted as a highly versatile slow-floating swimbait, the Gillroid Minnie comes equipped with two soft plastic tails, diving bills, a lipless cap, and line tie placements at both the nose and underneath the chin. This allows for customized swim actions tailored to current fishing conditions.

By attaching the standard lip and boot tail, the Minnie deflects off cover, dives up to 4ft, and exhibits a tight wobble reminiscent of a flat-sided crankbait. Utilizing the angled wind lip, it dives shallow to 2ft while maintaining a smooth gliding motion with the flat tail. Removing the bill and inserting the lipless cap, paired with the boot tail, transforms the Minnie into a surface wakebait, creating v-shaped water displacement.

Adding a small weight to the eyelet beneath the chin converts the Gillroid Minnie into a slow-sinking glidebait, expanding its versatility further. With its compact size and robust construction, this swimbait can handle even the largest bass. Adorned with realistic fins and lifelike molded gill plates, and available in a range of custom colorways, the Imakatsu Gillroid Minnie Swimbait offers one of the most authentic bluegill imitations on the market.

***Please note that the bill is removable, but you need to ensure the cap is in place to prevent the lure from filling with water
