Tips for using the Casan Ultra Minnow for Long‑Range Strikes

If you’ve ever tried to reach a deep current from the shore, or hit that one golden drop-off spot on a windy day, you know how frustrating casting can get.

Your lure sails left. Or it nosedives halfway. Or worse — it gets there, and the action is all wrong. The fish don’t bite. You reel in disappointed, again.

That’s where the Cassan Ultra Minnow makes its mark. This isn’t just another shiny plastic plug. It’s designed to cast farther, swim better, and survive longer — especially when you’re chasing serious predators in serious water.

Cassan Ultra Minnow: Made for the Fight

Here’s what makes this casting lure different — and why anglers who’ve used it rarely go back:

• Made from Japan-quality moulds: So the body shape stays perfectly balanced in flight.
• Built with USA-grade plastic: This isn’t a one-trip wonder; it’s made to handle heat, salt, and rough landings.
• Painted with premium Japanese finishing: Looks like a real baitfish, down to the flash and scale pattern.
• Hooks from OWNER ST-56TN: Some of the strongest treble hooks in the game. If a fish bites, it stays on.
• Internal wire-through structure: Gives you full confidence when pulling heavy fish out of rocks or deep channels.

So whether you’re fishing for Barramundi at a backwater creek, Snapper from a rocky shore, or Trevally off the boat — the Cassan Ultra Minnow gives you the reach, the strike, and the power to finish the fight.

How to Use the Cassan Ultra Minnow (and Why It Works)

1. Use a Balanced Setup for Distance

Why it matters:

You need a setup that matches the lure’s weight and design. If your rod is too soft or your line too light, the lure won’t fly — and you won’t reach feeding zones.

What to do:

• Use a medium-heavy or heavy rod (7–9 feet)
• Fast action tip for quicker flick and better lure control
• 20–30 lb braided line gives you strong, smooth casting with low stretch
• If fishing near snags, upgrade to a fluorocarbon leader (30–40 lb) to resist abrasion.

2. Maximise Your Cast, Even in Wind

Why it matters:

Most lures struggle in windy weather. They spin mid-air or flutter off-course. The Cassan Ultra Minnow is shaped for aerodynamic flight, so you don’t lose distance.

What to do:

• Cast with the wind behind you for maximum reach
• Use a sidearm throw when the wind is crosswise to keep the lure low and tight
• If the water’s choppy, aim past the splash zone — let the lure reach calm depth before you start retrieval

This is especially useful when you’re fishing surf breaks or river mouths during monsoon.

3. Retrieve Like a Baitfish Under Stress

Why it matters:

Predator fish don’t just bite anything. They go after movement that signals weakness — the sudden jerk, the stop, the wobble of a fish trying to escape.

What to do:

• After casting, count to 2–3 seconds to let the lure drop a bit
• Begin reeling in slowly
• Add small, sharp twitches every 2–3 seconds
• Pause briefly, then twitch again

This creates an erratic “wounded fish” action that triggers strikes — especially from species like Threadfin, Grouper, and Jacks.

Pro tip: If fish are following but not biting, slow down and pause longer. That hesitation often seals the deal.

4. Set Less, Land More

Why it matters:

Cheap hooks need aggressive hooksets. The OWNER ST-56TN hooks on the Cassan Ultra Minnow? They bite deep without the drama.

What to do:

• When you feel a hit, stay calm. Keep reeling with steady pressure.
• Don’t yank the rod — just lift slightly and let the hooks sink in
• Keep your line tight through the fight and let your rod absorb the pull

This reduces lost fish, prevents ripped mouths, and gives you cleaner landings.
