Duo Realis Minnow

This Duo Realis Minnow is an almighty suspending minnow for any style of angler.  Anglers can steadily retrieve, twitch, and jerk or consecutively twitch using various rod work. We have employed a fixed weight for sharp and quick darting action. By carefully setting the weight in the rear of the lure, its casting distance and accuracy are comparable to those moving weight systems.

The realism of the Duo Realis Minnow imitates pond smelt which is the main baitfish for bass. This produces bites in high-pressure fields.

The Duo Realis Minnow is a great lure for all seasons!

What Is A Hard Body Lure?

A hard body lure, also known as a hard bait or plug, is a type of fishing lure. It is typically made of a rigid material such as plastic, wood, or metal. Unlike soft plastic or rubber lures, hard body lures maintain their shape and have a solid body construction. They are designed to imitate various types of baitfish, insects, or other prey species to attract predatory fish.

Hard body lures come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, each with its specific action and diving depth. They often feature a lip or bill at the front, which determines the lure's diving depth and the type of action it produces in the water. The lip creates resistance against the water, causing the lure to dive or wobble when retrieved.

These lures are versatile and can be used in both freshwater and saltwater fishing. They are effective for targeting a wide range of fish species, including bass, trout, pike, muskie, walleye, snook, and redfish, among others. Hard body lures can be retrieved in various ways, such as a steady retrieve, jerking or twitching motion, or by using a stop-and-go technique to mimic the behavior of injured or fleeing prey.

Anglers often use hard body lures to cover a larger area and explore different depths of the water column. They are particularly useful for fishing around structures, rocky areas, drop-offs, or in open water. The realistic appearance and enticing action of hard body lures make them a popular choice among anglers looking to attract and trigger predatory fish strikes.
