Duo Tide Minnow Slim 175SP

A salty slim for a swift snatch in the shallow sea

The Tide Minnow Slim 175 is a legend that needs no introduction. Here we are introducing the all new suspending version, the 175SP. This evil twin will sit quietly in the water until a jerk fires up its enticing moves and gets a bite. The 175SP can be used in many waters but it is at its best suspended in the soothing salinity of the Mediterranean Sea for which it was primarily developed.

A pioneering, often imitated long body design

The Tide-Minnow Slim 175 is a lure that redefined the standards of body size. It is very easy to handle for its size, and has proven its potential in Northern Japan not only with seabass but also sea trout. Large minnows tend to have many problematic qualities, such as being too heavy to cast, having too much air resistance while casting, being too heavy when retrieving, etc. We have worked on these problems, striving to create a lure that can be used with medium class seabass tackle in winds, waves and currents that are typical while fishing for seabass. The pronounced “wobble and roll” action and the strong wake created by the long body appeals to the game fish in a vast range of conditions. We challenge anglers to break out of the stereotypes and give this 175mm a try. This slim minnow may well be an eye opener!

Length 175mm, Weight 27g, Type Floating (Moving Weight), Hook #4, Range 0.8~1.3m

Length 175mm, Weight 29g, Type Sinking (Moving Weight), Hook #4, Range 0.9~1.4m

Duo Tide Minnow Slim 200

The ultimate long minnow

The success of the Tide-Minnow Slim 175 has prompted our designers to go one step further. Merely scaling up the size would adversely affect the lure’s performance, so we went back to the drawing board and designed the 200mm model from scratch. A new tapered body cross-section and a tightened head and tail reduces the strain on the angler. The Tide-Minnow Slim 200 is a minnow with almost limitless potential. Try it in the field and we bet you will be impressed!
