It is a swimming minnow and a jerk bait. This WHIPLASH's first minnow is based on the concept of "steady in retrieve, acrobatic in jerk", and has been shaped after meticulous manual adjustments and repeated tests. Steady swimming of tight rolling type with clear flickering with a little wobble in slow retrieve, maintaining straight line stability even though wobble increases in the high speed range. Surprisingly, it is quite tolerant of running water. As for the jerk, it is a dirt that comes out like a flash by vertical input. With a fine twitch, it wriths like a writhing, and writhing that makes the body look bent, igniting the predatory instinct of the fish eater. Assuming a strong target, the body thickness is 1.1mm, which is 10% more than usual. Each eye has also been reinforced and enlarged to accommodate split rings that are slightly larger than the standard. Versatile minnows can be used for various purposes and for various target fish. What TBR aimed for is exactly that versatile. It is an ideal image of a "universal lure" that minnows should be.
