TSURINOYA 92SP Suspending Minnow Jerkbait
The TSURINOYA 92SP is a slender suspending jerkbait built for bass anglers who want a lure that hangs in the strike zone instead of rising or sinking away. At 92mm and 9g it casts easily on medium spinning or baitcasting gear and holds a neutral position on the pause, giving hesitant bass extra time to commit.
Its tight, rolling wobble on the twitch and slow side-to-side settle on the pause make it a strong choice for largemouth and smallmouth working points, grass edges, laydowns, and clear to stained water. The three-treble setup gives solid hookup coverage on both aggressive strikes and subtle pickups during the pause.

How to fish it
- Cast past the target area and let the lure settle for a second before starting your retrieve
- Use a sharp jerk-jerk-pause cadence, twitching the rod tip to make the bait dart and roll
- Extend the pause in cold water or when fish are following but not committing
- Work the bait along grass lines, points, and drop-offs where suspended bass hold
Frequently asked
The 92mm profile is a versatile size that suits both average largemouth and smallmouth, matching common baitfish forage without looking oversized.
Bright chartreuse and green patterns like this one work well in stained or off-color water where fish rely on contrast and vibration to locate the bait. Save more natural, translucent patterns for clear water.
A 6.6 to 7 foot medium action spinning or casting rod with 8 to 12 lb fluorocarbon or monofilament gives good action and enough stretch for solid hooksets on treble hooks.
Suspending jerkbaits shine in cooler water, from early spring through fall turnover, when bass are less aggressive and respond better to a lure that pauses in place.
