Tsurinoya 90S Sinking Minnow Jerkbait, 3.5in 37g
Tsurinoya 90S Sinking Minnow Jerkbait, 3.5in 37g
The Tsurinoya 90S is a heavy sinking minnow built for distance. At 90mm and 37g, the weighted body casts far and true even into wind, then settles on a controlled sink that keeps the bait in the strike zone longer. The slim baitfish profile and finish give it a realistic look that bass mistake for real forage.
Worked with a twitch-pause retrieve, the 90S darts and rolls with a tight, erratic action that triggers reaction strikes. It sinks steadily between twitches, making it effective for largemouth and smallmouth holding on points, drop-offs, and deeper structure. The added weight also makes it a solid choice for covering open water quickly when bass are scattered or suspended.

How to fish it
- Cast the lure well beyond your target area, using the weight to reach distant structure or open water.
- Let it sink to the depth you want before starting your retrieve, counting down for consistency.
- Work a twitch-pause retrieve, snapping the rod tip to make the bait dart and roll, then pausing to let it fall.
- Fish it along points, drop-offs, and creek channels where bass are holding deeper or suspending on baitfish.
Frequently asked
The 90mm, 37g size suits average to larger largemouth and smallmouth bass, and casts well enough to cover deep or open water effectively.
Choose brighter, more reflective patterns in clear water and bolder, higher-contrast colors in stained or murky conditions.
A medium to medium-heavy casting rod paired with 10 to 17 lb fluorocarbon or braid with a fluorocarbon leader handles the weight and casting distance well.
It performs well in cooler months and transitional seasons when bass are holding deeper or suspending, and also works for covering open water during active feeding periods.
