Product description
The TSURINOYA 80S is a sinking minnow built for anglers who want precise depth control on the pause. At 80mm and 12g it casts easily on medium spinning gear and settles into a slow, horizontal sink that keeps it in the strike zone longer. The tight, rolling wobble and flash-heavy finish mimic a dying or disoriented baitfish, which is exactly what triggers reaction bites from largemouth and smallmouth holding near cover.
Fish it around laydowns, rock edges, and drop-offs where bass ambush from below. It also handles clear streams and light current well, and the sinking profile makes it useful for suspended fish in cooler water when a jerk-pause retrieve outproduces a straight swim.
How to fish it
- Cast past the target area and let the lure sink to the desired depth before starting your retrieve.
- Work it with sharp twitch-pause action, letting it glide and flash on the pause rather than reeling steadily.
- Vary pause length based on water temperature; longer pauses in cold water often trigger more strikes.
- Watch your line on the fall since many bass hit as the lure sinks or just as it starts to glide again.
Frequently asked
The 80mm/12g size is a versatile match for average largemouth and smallmouth, and it also handles pike and stream trout without being oversized.
Use brighter, higher-contrast finishes in stained water so bass can locate the bait, and switch to more natural, translucent patterns in clear water to avoid spooking fish.
A medium to medium-light spinning rod with 6 to 10 lb fluorocarbon or braid with a fluorocarbon leader gives good action and sensitivity for detecting subtle strikes.
It performs well in cooler water during spring and fall when a slow sinking, pause-heavy retrieve matches sluggish bass behavior, though it can be fished year-round with adjusted cadence.
