Built for demanding saltwater shore and surf fishing, the Lucky Craft FlashMinnow Slim 173S is a heavy-duty, long-casting sinking jerkbait designed to cut through strong headwinds. Measuring 6-3/4 in (173mm) and weighing approximately 4/5oz(24g), its aerodynamic, slender body allows shoreline anglers to reach distant breakers, sand bars, and deep troughs that smaller baits cannot touch. As a sinking model, the FlashMinnow Slim 173S provides versatile depth control, letting you count down to target specific water columns or stay below heavy chop. On a steady retrieve, it delivers a tight, enticing rolling action. When worked with a twitch-twitch-pause technique, it darts erratically and shimmers on the drop to mimic a panicked baitfish—triggering aggressive reaction bites from striped bass, halibut, white seabass, and bluefish. Equipped with three sharp, saltwater-grade treble hooks, this durable hard bait tracks true through strong currents, rip tides, and heavy surf.
