About this piece
The Bassday Mononofu 50S is a heavy sinking minnow designed for mountain stream trout fishing. At 50mm and 4.6g, it's the standard size for first casts, easy to throw with any rod. Its horizontal fall and instant swimming action give it a strong advantage for pinpoint presentations.
