Plastic Minnows

• 1). Hold the plastic minnow and insert the hook point into the center of the nose. The hook should be positioned from the belly or underside of the artificial lure.
  
  
• 2). Push the hook and bring it out at the bottom, just under the minnow's "chin."
  
  
• 3). Pass the hook all the way through until it hangs from the top, then twist it all the way around through the offset.
  
  
• 4). Position the hook in the belly slot so the hook rests against the back of the minnow.
  
  
• 5). Bend the minnow upward and insert the hook point through. The barb and hook point should rest against the minnow's back and the artificial bait should be in a straight position.
