It features a tight wobble action that triggers reaction strikes from bass, walleye, and pike, making it effective for multi-species fishing across seasons. Key specifications include a body length of 2-3/4 inches, running depth of 5 to 11 feet, weight of 5/16 ounce, and VMC black nickel treble hooks; the Holographic Shiner color pattern mimics baitfish.
