Kingdom Passler Floating Minnow Jerkbait
Kingdom Passler Floating Minnow Jerkbait
The Kingdom Passler is a hard-body floating minnow built for a tight, erratic jerkbait action that draws reaction strikes from bass holding near cover or suspended over structure. The slim profile and weighted internal system give it a stable cast and a subtle side-to-side glide on the pause, mimicking a dying or fleeing baitfish.
Available in 120mm/23g and 130mm/30g sizes, it covers a range of largemouth and smallmouth situations from shallow flats to deeper points. The floating design lets you work it over grass and stumps without constant snagging, then let it sit and rise on the pause when fish are following but not committing.

How to fish it
- Cast past the target area and let the lure settle before starting your retrieve
- Use a twitch-twitch-pause cadence to trigger the side-to-side glide and give fish a chance to strike
- Vary pause length based on water temperature, longer pauses in cold water and shorter in warm water
- Work the lure along visible cover like laydowns, weed edges, and rock points where bass ambush baitfish
Frequently asked
The 120mm/23g size is a versatile all-around choice for most bass water. Step up to the 130mm/30g version when targeting larger fish or working deeper, more open areas.
Choose brighter, high-contrast patterns like chartreuse or gold in stained water, and more natural, translucent baitfish patterns in clear water.
A medium-light to medium power spinning or casting rod with 10 to 15 lb fluorocarbon or braid with a fluorocarbon leader gives good action and hook-setting power.
Yes, the tight wobble and glide action work well for smallmouth around rock structure and drop-offs, especially in cooler water when a slower retrieve with pauses is effective.
