Rebel Jumpin' Minnow ~ Topwater Lure for Striped Bass Fishing

Name	Model	Size	Weight	Depth	Hooks	Type
Rebel Jumpin' Minnow	T20	4-1/2" (114mm)	1/2 oz (23g)	Topwater	#2	Walk-the-dog action. Loud knocking noise.

The 4-1/2" Jumpin' Minnow has a sturdy polycarbonate body and saltwater grade hook hangers. It is a popular topwater lure for freshwater and saltwater striped bass.

At 1/2 oz, it is a medium to light tackle lure for schoolie stripers and relatively calm water surfaces.

Even for schoolie stripers, you may desireto upgrade to stronger #2 trebles when replacing the original hooks. Where big fish are likely to be caught, you can upgrade to stronger split rings and x-strong size #1 hooks.

To achieve the walk-the-dog action, simply cast out and begin a slack line twitching or popping of the rod tip. Begin slowly and concentrate on the rhythmic left-right, side-stepping action of the lure. Once you have the right side-to-side rhythm, you can then experiment with a range of slow to fast forward movement (speed at which you take in line by turning the handle). Try varying those two independent factors - side-to-side versus forward movement - until you come across the combination that fish want to strike.
