More on the ACast Minnow Small & Medium Lip...
Small and Medium Lip ACast Minnows come in 95mm (3-3/4") and 125 mm (5") sizes. Generally speaking, the 95 size is suited to relatively small to medium gamefish with relatively lighter tackle whereas the 125 is apropos to attract and land decent size fish on medium/heavy gear.
The Small Lip (SL) models come in floating (95 and 125) or sinking (125 only).When you see their broad sides flashing on the retrieve, you'll realize just how much water those sides are stirring. The SL models run 2-5 feet deep, depending on model. All may be retrieved or trolled steadily. They also have lifelike darting action when jerked. One dependable tactic is to jerk them without pausing too long. Mainly keep jerking and moving them to excite fish into striking. The Small Lip models all have a wide side-to-side rolling action that is great for power fishing to cover water quickly in order to search for active fish.
The Medium Lip (ML) models have a tight wiggling action. The 95 ML reaches depths to 6 feet, the 125 ML dives to 8 feet, and both suspend when paused. They're at their best when you pause one right beside fish-holding cover, or whenever inactive fish are present, the suspending nature of the ML models can coax strikes from non-feeding fish that can't resist the long pauses that are so deadly with the 95MLand 125 ML.
