Kingdom Sinking Minnow Jerkbait, Long-Cast Bass Lure
Kingdom Sinking Minnow Jerkbait, Long-Cast Bass Lure
This sinking minnow is built for anglers who need distance and control in one bait. The slim, weighted body casts far on spinning or baitcasting gear and settles into a natural horizontal posture at rest, making it easy to work through the strike zone at a controlled depth.
Worked with a twitch-pause retrieve, it darts and rolls with a tight, erratic action that triggers reaction strikes from largemouth and smallmouth holding near points, drop-offs, and submerged cover. The sinking design keeps it in the zone longer than floating minnows, and the reflective scale finish adds flash in stained or clear water alike.

How to fish it
- Cast past the target area and let the bait sink to the desired depth before starting your retrieve.
- Work it with a twitch-twitch-pause cadence to trigger the darting action that draws reaction bites.
- Slow down around cover and structure, letting the bait hang and sink slightly on each pause.
- Vary retrieve speed and pause length until you find the cadence bass respond to that day.
Frequently asked
The 80mm/21g size is a good all-around choice for finesse presentations and pressured fish, while the 93mm/30g version casts farther and pushes more water, which helps when covering open flats or targeting larger bass.
In clear water, natural shad or silver patterns work well since bass key in on subtle flash and profile. In stained or murky water, brighter or higher-contrast finishes help bass locate the bait by silhouette and vibration.
A medium-power spinning or baitcasting rod with 10 to 15 lb fluorocarbon or braid with a fluorocarbon leader gives good casting distance and enough sensitivity to detect strikes during the pause.
It performs well from spring through fall for largemouth and smallmouth bass, and its sinking profile also makes it effective for seabass and perch when a slower, deeper presentation is needed.
