Question

Please tell me how to fish a banjo minnow. THanks

Answer 1

I just got my banjo minnows and I'm hoping they're not a lure that catch more fishermen than fish. The only thing that made me get into it was it had Al Linder and Babe Winkelmans blessing.



I plan to fish them as a combination between a finesse and swim bait. I'm going to give a few twitches let drop then swim it in for a second or two then repeat the process. from that point on I'll see which part  of the presentation gets the bite then go with that technique.  I'm also going to try and bounce it along submerged rocks or brushpiles to see what that brings.
