The DS Minnow features a narrow spine that runs on top of the tail bridge transmitting even the most subtle movements of the rod tip crisply to the tail of the bait. On the underside, the DS minnow features a flat bottom that changes the movement characteristic of the tail falling vs. rising, resulting in a dynamic strike triggering movement bass cannot resist. Adding to its realism and strength as a finesse bait, the DS minnow features premium hand-painted eyes that make it extremely effective if worked slow, even if bass can get a good look at it
