Most notably, it has a \u003cstrong\u003esymmetrical body\u003c\/strong\u003e - there is no fixed top or bottom. With two-tone colour schemes, this opens up an interesting option: try fishing it either way round to see which orientation gets more bites. With Green Pumpkin\/Chartreuse, for instance, you can test whether fish respond better to the chartreuse side facing up or down. Even with single-colour \u003cem\u003eHP Minnows\u003c\/em\u003e, the symmetry pays off in a practical way. After a few fish, one side can stretch slightly and the hook may no longer hold cleanly - simply flip the lure over and carry on fishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Wide Slit for Offset Hooks and Straight-Running Action\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother defining feature of the \u003cem\u003eOSP HP Minnow\u003c\/em\u003e is \u003cstrong\u003ethe large slit in the rear centre of the body\u003c\/strong\u003e. With this slit, you only need to push the offset hook through the head, then feed the hook shank through the slit and bury the hook point in the body. The result is a \u003cstrong\u003every straight, even hook set\u003c\/strong\u003e that gives the lure a \u003cstrong\u003eperfectly straight glide through the water\u003c\/strong\u003e. At higher retrieve speeds, water flowing through the slit causes the rear half of the body to kick strongly from side to side - you can see this clearly in the video below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eV-Tail with Webbing for Strong Vibration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ewebbing on the V-tail\u003c\/strong\u003e of the \u003cem\u003eOSP HP Minnow\u003c\/em\u003e really comes into its own on a drop shot rig, but it performs just as well on a range of other rigs such as the Neko rig. Even the lightest twitch is enough to set the tail vibrating and unlock the lure's \u003cstrong\u003eremarkably effective action\u003c\/strong\u003e. This makes it \u003cstrong\u003edeadly for perch, zander and largemouth bass\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVersatile and Effective Across a Wide Range of Rigs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eOSP HP Minnow\u003c\/em\u003e works across a broad range of presentations. You can fish it on most \u003cstrong\u003efinesse rigs\u003c\/strong\u003e - Carolina rig, Texas rig, Neko rig - on a \u003cstrong\u003edrop shot rig\u003c\/strong\u003e, or jig it along the bottom on a \u003cstrong\u003ejig head\u003c\/strong\u003e. It also makes a very effective trailer on a \u003cstrong\u003eskirted jig\u003c\/strong\u003e and is well worth trying there. On the fall, the lure tracks straight as an arrow as it sinks slowly to the bottom. The moment you add any input - twitching, shaking, a subtle twitch - it responds with a \u003cstrong\u003every pronounced, reactive action\u003c\/strong\u003e that will draw bites even from passive fish that are not actively feeding. A fantastic soft plastic that will particularly appeal to \u003cstrong\u003efinesse anglers\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSize Overview:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePer Pack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.1\" = 7.8 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 pieces\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.7\" = 9.5 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7 pieces\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Facts:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft plastic \/ V-tail shad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in 2 sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV-tail with webbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody slit for offset hooks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSymmetrical body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly versatile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for finesse rigs, drop shot rig, jig head \u0026amp; skirted jig\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Japan - JDM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSP","offers":[{"title":"7.8 cm \/ 2.0 g \/ Ghost Shrimp","offer_id":47424066027866,"sku":"SW35347","price":11.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"7.8 cm \/ 2.0 g \/ Lively Wakasagi","offer_id":47426112389466,"sku":"SW35347.1","price":11.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"9.5 cm \/ 3.0 g \/ Green Pumpkin Chart","offer_id":47426112422234,"sku":"SW35347.6","price":11.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"9.5 cm \/ 3.0 g \/ Watermelon Pepper","offer_id":47426112455002,"sku":"SW35347.7","price":11.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0548\/9197\/0669\/files\/OSP-HP-Minnow-Green-Pumpkin-Chart.jpg?v=1759437680","url":"https:\/\/www.pikeandperch.eu\/products\/osp-hp-minnow","provider":"HechtundBarsch.de","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
