The luckyCraft Flash Minnow 150SR Saltwater Jerkbait is a suspending bait thatwill stay in the zone on the pause.  Here at Tackle Express, we like to target calico bass and halibut at the Channel Islands.  The benefits of using a 150 size over a 110 size, or a 130 size, is that you get a bigger profile. 

This larger profile can keep smaller fish from biting and also can bring fish up from deeper depths.   Combining the benefits of the Pointer and Flash Minnow, this bait has great side-to-side action and slowly floats allowing it to be used in various shallow water situations.
