Salmo Minnow Sinking 5cm 5g Olive Bleak

Salmo Minnow Sinking 5cm — Your Universal Predator Lure

One of the oldest lures in the Salmo family, the Minnow Sinking remains a proven classic that continues to catch fish across all predatory species and habitats.

Versatile High-Frequency Action

The narrow, high-frequency swimming action triggers strikes from perch, trout, pike, and zander alike. You can fish this lure in multiple ways—steady retrieve, stop-and-go, or twitching—to match the mood of the fish and the conditions on the water.

Effective Depth Range for Active Fish

The sinking variant dives to 0.8–1.5 m, placing your lure right in the strike zone where predators hunt baitfish. Cast it out, let it sink to the desired depth, and work it back with the retrieve style that suits your target species.

Choose the Right Variant

The Salmo Minnow Sinking is available in three sizes and multiple colour patterns to cover different fishing scenarios:

• 5 cm / 5 g (Holo Bleak, Olive Bleak, Trout, Spirlin, Holo Real Minnow, Lake Charr, Holo Stickleback) — shallow to mid-depth zones (0.8–1.5 m); ideal for perch, small pike, trout in streams and lakes

• 6 cm / 6 g (Holo Bleak, Trout, Spirlin, Holo Real Minnow, Lake Charr) — mid-depth zones (1.0–1.5 m); versatile all-rounder for perch, zander, and medium pike

• 7 cm / 8 g (Holo Bleak, Olive Bleak, Trout, Spirlin, Holo Real Minnow, Lake Charr, Holo Stickleback) — deeper zones (1.5–2.0 m); larger profile for pike, zander, and bigger perch
