Power Minnow Back by Popular Demand
Proven bait back with new sizes


Avid anglers spoke out about bringing back the Power Minnow and Berkley listened. The ever-popular Power Minnow is available in 2-,3- and 4-inch sizes, offering anglers an option to fish these baits for a multitude of freshwater species.

The unique split tail design of the Power Minnow provides a subtle, finesse presentation. For the best results, use the PowerBait Power Minnow in any situation where bass find themselves with lockjaw. One great set up for this soft plastic is the drop shot rig. This will allow an angler to utilize the lifelike action of the Power Minnow to its fullest ability.

“The PowerBait Power Minnow is perfect for finicky fish that require a more subtle presentation,” said Mike Iaconelli Berkley Pro angler. “I like to rig the 4-inch Power Minnow with a ¼-ounce jig head and fish it around heavy cover. It also works well when fishing open water on a drop shot rig. When I fish it slow it produces more strikes than fishing it quickly through an area.”

Aside from its lifelike action and many uses, the Power Minnow is packed with the Berkley PowerBait advantage. Fish hold on 18 times longer giving any angler a distinct advantage for greater success and more time for hook sets.

Berkley PowerBait Power Minnows are available in six proven colors; Black Shad, Chartreuse Shad, Emerald Shiner, Pearl White, Rainbow and Smelt. A package of Berkley PowerBait Power Minnows has an MSRP of $3.99.
