STORAGE TIPS
PVC + TPE Don’t Mix
Crafted from high-quality PVC instead of TPE, the Spectre Minnow doesn’t have the super-stretchy feel of other baits in the Live Ops range, however the PVC allows for an ultra-finesse profile with delicate tails that move naturally, even on the slowest retrieve.
***JUST REMEMBER don’t store PVC and TPE lures together, as they can react and deform.
