The Hopkins Shorty lure is designed to look like a Herring type or Shad type bait fish. With it's relatively thick body, this lure is heavier than conventional spoons that are the same size and can be cast further. This lure has a body made from rust proof stainless steel, rings of stainless steel and rugged hooks. The hammered stainless steel finish is irresistible to most gamefish. The Shorty can be cast or trolled and has a natural swimming action.
