Yo-Zuri Pins Minnow Floating 70mm 2.75in

The Yo-Zuri Pins Minnow Floating 70mm 2.75-inch lure is a proven floating diver that has dominated freshwater and saltwater fishing for over two decades. This compact minnow mimics natural baitfish behavior and excels in shallow-water strike zones where feeding fish congregate during spring and fall transitions, mornings, and evenings. Built with a durable ABS resin lip, the Pins Minnow dives efficiently over submerged structure while maintaining the buoyancy and action that trigger aggressive strikes across a wide variety of game fish species worldwide.

The Pins Minnow incorporates Yo-Zuri's proprietary Weight Transfer System, which optimizes casting distance and dive depth through precise internal weight distribution. At 70mm length and weighing just 0.02 lbs, this lure delivers responsive action on light to medium tackle and generates realistic lateral movement that mimics the erratic patterns of injured baitfish. The floating classification means the lure naturally rises when retrieve pressure is released, making it ideal for working around emergent vegetation, fallen timber, and rocky outcrops where structure-hugging fish hide. Its versatility spans both lake and stream environments, and it performs equally well when trolled behind moving watercraft.

Anglers targeting largemouth and smallmouth bass, pike, walleye, and saltwater species will find the Pins Minnow Floating effective during the shallow-feeding windows that define seasonal success. Weekend fishermen appreciate its straightforward presentation and reliable action, while serious tournament competitors and guides trust it as a foundational shallow-diving pattern lure. The Pins Minnow's two-decade track record reflects proven performance across diverse water conditions, making it an essential component of any shallow-water fishing arsenal for both lake and stream applications.
