Bass Pro Shops® XPS® Nitro Extreme® Minnows
Our experts are impressed with the sculptured, naturally shaped body designs, the lifelike 3-D lazer eyes, the extra-loud rattles - and especially the hot finishes that replicate the natural colorization process (becoming more pronounced in direct sunlight, and somewhat less intense under the surface). All styles are equipped with premium extra-sharp hooks. Whenever game fish are feeding on slender baitfish, this is the minnowbait to reach for! Longer and slimmer to mimic everything from shiners to creek chubs. Very realistic.

A:
The treble hooks are a wide-gapped size 8 on the 2 3/4" lure, however, they are very weak hooks. Large fish will bend them out. I have had this happen several times. I always change the hooks to hi-quality, size 8.Answers

A:
Yes! It is good for both. Especially in rivers. They don't run very deep so lakes may be a challenge - unless you fish shallow.

smallmouth would murder this bait - which is good! Trout, I dunno... maybe if there are big ones in the system you're fishing.A:

This is a good lure for rainbows. However, I have had the hooks bent out several times now by large fish. I have even had the hooks on the 3 1/2" size lure (which appear to be heavy duty) bent out by larger rainbows (steelhead) and I was using only 6lb. test line. I highly recommend changing the hooks on these lures if you are fishing for larger fish (pike, steelhead, etc). Use size 8 trebles on the 2 3/4" model and size 6 trebles on the 3 1/2" lure.Images for this Answer

I have not tried this lure out for rainbow trout, so I don't know. But I do know it works awesome for smallmouth. I have both sizes of this lure and smallmouth slam both sizes...HARD.1 of 1
