Master Mid-Strolling & Hovering: The Soft Minnow for Technique Newbies

Swimming Action

1. Unlocking the Secrets of Mid-Strolling and Hovering: The Genesis of DRIFT FRY

Mid-Strolling and Hovering are techniques favored by professional anglers in Japan and are considered some of the most subtle moving baits. Recently, due to the success of 2023 BASS ELITE at Lake Champlain Champion Kyoya Fujita, these techniques have gained attention in the U.S. as well. At first glance, it may seem like you're just shaking the rod to retrieve the jig-head-rigged soft-plastic, but the technique actually requires "keeping the bait at a consistent depth while rolling it," which is incredibly challenging. Because they are subtle baits with less drawing power than hard baits like crankbaits, it's crucial for anglers to swim the lure through the targeted fish's range, maintaining a consistent depth during retrieval.

2. A Unique Bill Makes Mid-Strolling and Hovering Easier

Drift Fry is developed by Jackall to make Mid-Strolling and Hovering accessible even for beginners. By adding a bill to the soft-plastic, it has become easier to produce roll actions, making it less likely to rise to the surface. This makes Drift Fry an ideal soft minnow for beginners trying to master Mid-Strolling and Hovering, allowing anyone to easily maintain a consistent depth while rolling the lure.

3. Two Holes for Easier Rigging

Given the delicate nature of Mid-Strolling and Hovering, rigging is crucial. If you don't set the hook and weight properly, you won't achieve a smooth/consistent rolling action. Drift Fry has two holes: one 'Guide Hole' for setting jighead hooks in the best position and 'Nail Weight Hole' for inserting nail weights for Hovering.

4. Improve your catch rate with the use of two types of tails and three sizes.

As of 2023, there are three sizes available for the Driftfry.
The original 3.0” size lacks the power to attract fish from a distance. The Driftfry 4.0” was created for such situations. To increase its appeal, it has a tail different from the 3.0” version, designed to roll while twisting its body.

However, if you want to maintain the rolling action of the 3.0” but increase only the size, cutting tail is recommended.
When you want to attract more fish, use it straight out of the package. When bass are not biting, either cut the tail or downsize to 3.0” to potentially improve your catch."

5. Adjust the Target Range with Jighead Weight

You can change the target depth for Drift Fry’s Mid-Strolling by adjusting the weight of the jighead. If you want to target shallow waters, use lighter weights. For deeper waters, select an appropriate weight up to a limit of 1/8oz (3.5g).

6. Improve Catch Rates with Color Selection

Drift Fry features a two-layer "Live Core Structure" that achieves a realistic texture and multi-dimensional colors, resembling real fish. All the colors are attractive, but you're likely to catch more fish by strategically choosing among three main categories of colors:

Appeal Colors:

Ideal for murky waters and also for beginners learning Mid-Strolling. They show well when swimming at shallow depths with lighter jighead weights.
