Salmo Minnow 7cm 1.5–2.0m 8g Wounded Dace

Salmo Minnow 7 cm / 8 g – Wounded Dace – Reach the Strike Zone in Flowing Water

The Salmo Minnow is one of the longest-running lures in Salmo's lineup for good reason: its subtle, lifelike action consistently fools predatory fish. This 7 cm, 8 g floating wobbler in Wounded Dace runs at 1.5–2.0 m, putting it right in the feeding lane on rivers and deeper runs.

Irresistible Wounded-Baitfish Action

The Wounded Dace colour mimics a struggling dace — flashing flanks and a distressed swimming motion that triggers the predatory instinct in perch, pike, asp, and trout. Fish it with sharp twitches or a stop-and-go retrieve to make the lure dart and pause like an easy meal.

Versatile Across River Techniques

At 1.5–2.0 m running depth and 8 g, this Minnow casts well and holds depth against moderate current. Work it upstream for a natural drift, sweep it across the flow, or slow-roll it along deeper undercuts and channel edges. The lure responds equally well to steady retrieves and aggressive twitching sessions.
