Big Guy Baits 7" Shallow Minnow

Big Guy Baits 7" Shallow Minnow: The Ultimate Surface & Shallow Cover Tool

When the big fish move into the shallows, the Big Guy Baits 7" Shallow Minnow is the tool you need to trigger an explosion. Specifically designed for precision fishing in thin water, this 2-ounce minnow bait is a master at drawing trophy musky and pike out of heavy cover.

Master the "Pull and Pause" Retrieve

While the 7" Shallow Minnow features a great action on a straight retrieve, it truly shines when worked with a pulling technique. Whether you use short, aggressive snaps or long, sweeping pulls, this bait mimics a panicked baitfish darting through the shallows.

• Slow-Rise Buoyancy: On the pause, the bait features a strategic slow rise. This is often the exact moment a following musky decides to strike.

• Targeting Shallow Structure: With a running depth of only 18", it is the perfect choice for working over the tops of submerged vegetation, sand flats, and stump fields.

• Maximum Vibration: The wide profile and erratic darting action create significant water displacement, calling fish in from deep within the weeds.

Built Commercial-Grade Tough

Big Guy Baits doesn't cut corners on hardware. This lure is built to withstand the "slash and grab" of a 50-inch musky without failing.

• Stainless Steel Components: Equipped with heavy-duty stainless steel screw eyes and split rings to prevent bending or rust.

• Premium Hooks: Features 3/0 short shank 1x VMC hooks, designed for maximum gap and superior hook-up ratios while minimizing tangles.

• Hand-Tuned Performance: Each bait is weighted to provide that perfect, slow-rising action that distinguishes custom-quality lures from mass-produced tackle.
