Field Tip: A Clever Finesse Alternative to a Jighead Minnow Presentation

Looking for another finesse option this spring when the fish aren't reacting to a jighead minnow presentation? Check out the HideUp Coike in the smaller 17 mm size. It's been working for Lake Biwa guide Haruki Takeda in Japan.

Hi, I'm Takeda.

Alright, I'm here with Takeda. What we're doing is we are showing you a good springtime method for using the coike. A lot of the jighead minnow deal, it's kind of mostly a faster type of action on there. Where this Coike, you could kind of slow down a little bit. A lot of those fish may not quite be as active yet. And they're a little harder to catch. Coike is a great, great, great option for those that are wanting to slow down a little bit. Maybe get that bigger fish, higher pressure fish to bite. This is a great one. This one right here is the 17mm. And he's got it on a little tungsten jig head. This is a great choice for catching some of those pre-spawn bass.
