Description

The Smith Still Area Tune is a fully tuned area-fishing version of Smith's popular Still match-the-bait minnow, produced under the supervision of tournament angler Hiroshi Mizuma. It measures 40 mm, weighs 1.3 g, and floats, running on a single Van Hook SP-21BL #8 fitted to the tail on two #00 split rings.

Built for stocked area-trout ponds, it is tuned for the "magic jerk" presentation: cast out, pull it quickly below the trout's sightline to make it vanish, then apply line tension to control its posture as it rises straight back up into view, bringing wary, well-pressured fish back for another look.

Information

The swimming action

Still Area Tune is a fully tuned area-fishing version of Smith's Still match-the-bait minnow, developed with tournament angler Hiroshi Mizuma to run true on the magic jerk technique.

When to throw it

Built for stocked area-trout ponds and wary, well-pressured fish that need a more deliberate trigger than a straight retrieve provides.

How to work it

Cast out, pull it quickly below the trout's sightline to make it vanish, then apply line tension to control its posture as it rises straight back into view.

The setup it likes

Suits a light area-trout rod (UL–L) with a responsive tip, a 1000–1500 reel, 2–3 lb fluorocarbon or nylon line, and the fitted Van Hook SP-21BL #8.
