Great Lakes Finesse Hover Minnow 2.75" 8pk Green Pumpin

The Great Lakes Finesse Hover Minnow 2.75" soft bait is built for modern forward-facing sonar fishing and sight-casting techniques. These 8-pack bags come in Green Pumpin', a proven color that works in clear to slightly stained water. The Hover Minnow's signature concave belly design is what sets it apart: it generates two distinct actions depending on how you work it, giving you options when fish have seen plenty of conventional presentations and become line-shy.

Drop this bait vertically and it spirals on the fall, mimicking a dying or injured baitfish. Jig it in place and it darts randomly in multiple directions before returning to center, triggering reactive strikes from bass that won't commit to a steady retrieve. Fish it horizontally with subtle rod twitches and the Hover Minnow rolls, glides, and darts with unpredictable action throughout the water column. That erratic motion is the whole point—especially as bass become conditioned to the standard Cindy Rig, flipping, and strolling presentations that dominate pressured water.

Whether you're running live forward-facing sonar, sight-fishing shallow cover, or working deeper structure, these baits adapt to your technique. The 2.75" profile is compact enough for precision work but big enough to draw interest from quality fish. Each 8-pack gives you plenty to experiment with rigging and presentation while you dial in what the fish want on any given day.
