Description

The Apia Dover 70 Slow Sinking is a 70mm, 10g minnow with a slow-sinking fall and a wobble-and-roll action, fished on twin #8 trebles down to around 60cm.

Its unhurried sink rate lets it hang in the strike zone through the pause, making it a seabass minnow suited to working structure and slower-paced retrieves.

Information

The swimming action

Dover is Apia's pilot-lure minnow series for seabass, built for casting distance well beyond what its compact body suggests; each model swims with a wobble-and-roll action, with floating versions running shallow and the sinking and slow-sinking versions holding a little deeper and hanging through the pause.

When to throw it

A seabass minnow series for harbours, rivers, brackish lakes, tight spots and open-coast surf — pick the shallow floating models for skinny water and the sinking or slow-sinking sizes for slightly deeper structure and slower presentations.

How to work it

A steady retrieve brings out the wobble-roll at the model's natural running depth; slow the retrieve right down on the sinking versions to let them hang in the strike zone, and use twitch-pause sequences for pinpoint casts to structure.

The setup it likes

Suits a light-to-medium seabass spinning rod (L–M depending on size), a 2500–3000-size reel, 8–12 lb fluorocarbon or 0.6–1.0 PE braid with a fluorocarbon leader.
