Fish-Fry Minnow® Jig

Bemidji, MN – Ask any angler to name their all-time favorite bait and you’re likely to hear one of two answers: “jig” or “live minnow.” The reason? Both baits catch loads of fish when nothing else will. Imagine then a jig and a live minnow miraculously combined into a single fish-catching superhero—a virtual “living jig.” The new FISH-FRY MINNOW® JIG from Northland® Fishing Tackle’s LIVE-FORAGE™ BAITS series is just that, the first ultra-realistic minnow-replica jighead. It’s a minnow, it’s a jig, it’s alive!.

The FISH-FRY MINNOW® JIG is part of Northland’s amazing lifelike series of LIVE-FORAGE™ BAITS that are designed to replicate fish fry and baitfish to perfection. Each lure sports hand-sculpted fins and tail, and is molded from lightweight metal to provide a slow injured baitfish action when jigged, dragged or dropped on the freefall. They’re also deadly when fished below a slip-bobber. LIVE-FORAGE™ HD Fish-Photo-Image™ patterns “match-the-hatch” and mimic a live minnow to the retina of its eyeball. These ReplicaSeries™ FISH-FRY MINNOW® JIG are deadly for Perch, Crappie, Walleye, and Trout—basically everything with fins that eats.

“The LIVE-FORAGE™ FISH-FRY MINNOW® JIG is a sweet new fish-replicating jighead that kicks, swims and flutters like the real thing,” says TEAM NORTHLAND Pro-Staff Greg Clusiau. “These incredible jigs accurately replicate natural fish forage. The Silver Shiner, Gold Perch, Dace Chub and Redtail patterns really get the attention of Monster Walleyes. Their beveled, banana body shapes swim with a wobbling action that mimics a crippled baitfish. Plus, the jigs’ undersides flash plated silver, gold or Super-Glo® colors to attract fish from afar. Tipped with a live minnow, leech, nightcrawler or softbait, these lively jigs create the perfect combo, and really fool ‘em!”

The LIVE-FORAGE™ BAITS are the result of two years of intensive research, design, testing and the integration of leading-edge Digital-Imaging Technology (DIT). The FISH-FRY MINNOW® JIG is available in three weights (1/16-, 1/8- and 1/4-ounce) and nine “spot-on” patterns, including Silver Shiner, Golden Shiner, Glow Perch, Rainbow Trout, Dace Chub and Bluegill.
