Boasting a similar erratic fish-catching action to the beloved original, the new floating version of the Daiwa Dr. Minnow expands on the Dr. Minnow’s long reputation of fooling gamefish of all species. With its streamlined body and small bill, the Dr. Minnow flickers and dances whether fished on a straight retrieve or as a jerkbait with jerks and pauses throughout the retrieve. Strikingly realistic detail, 3-D Eyes, and inventive new colors round out the profile and look that makes this lure so deadly. On the business end, the Dr. Minnow is equipped with ultra-sharp VMC 9650 treble hooks that will stick and stand up to whatever predator decides to make a meal out of this effective yet affordable offering. Whether chasing Largemouth, Smallmouth, Trout, or your favorite inshore species such as Stripers, Snook, or Redfish; the Daiwa Dr. Minnow is sure to earn a spot in your tackle box.

toss this and get bites

put this in water and just watch fish jump on it. I do use some attractant too with it to be honest.
Pros
  • price; light as a feather

Almost perfect

This is a great shallow water trout bait “BUT” the bill’s break off very easily when they bounce off rocks during the retrieve.
I think this lure could be one if the best trout cranks going if there was a little re-engineering done to prevent this breakage problem.

This bait works great on trout. That said, the bill on two of the five purchased broke off. Must be a design flaw, as I’ve never had this issue with any lip-type plugs I’ve purchased in over 5 decades of fishing.
Pros
  • Great trout catching lure.
Cons
  • Bill breaks off and renders bait useless.

Super jerk bait
April 24, 2020
Love using a jerk bait, been doing it for years. Decided to augment my normal arsenal with the Daiwa DR. Minnow. Decided on the
Wakasagi to resemble minnows and shad. GREAT choice. Haven't gone back to my old fave for months, no need. Recommend it to all my friends and clients. Have even donated a few. Super bait and great price point.
