Northland Tungsten Forage Minnow 1/16 oz Spoon – Purple Racecar

Meet the Northland Tungsten Forage Minnow 1/16 oz Spoon in Purple Racecar, a compact jigging lure built for precise, lifelike action beneath the surface. The tungsten body delivers quick sinking and a tight, responsive feel that keen anglers can read through the rod. The Purple Racecar finish pairs bold color with reflective accents that catch light in varied water conditions, making the lure stand out in both clear and stained water. The secret lies in the crippled minnow design, which triggers irregular flashes and fluttering motions that resemble a small baitfish trying to evade predators. Enhance realism with holographic 3D eyes, adding depth to the presentation and helping to sell the illusion from different angles.

How to fish and tips

Jig it aggressively to provoke maximum flash, then slow down and twitch the treble as curious fish come in to investigate. Consider tipping with a minnow head, waxworms, or a soft plastic to tailor the lure to the day’s mood and depth.

Use short bursts near structure, weed edges, or drop-offs, and vary your retrieve to find what the fish respond to in your river, lake, or pond. While results depend on conditions, this compact lure offers multiple ways to present a realistic forage profile.
