LEYDUN Micro Crankbait – 35mm 2.6g Floating | 2-Section Jointed Body | Shallow Diving | #6 Single Hook | 10 Colours

The LEYDUN Micro Crankbait is a 35mm body (50mm total including lip) floating crankbait weighing 2.6g. A 2-section jointed body produces an agile, articulated swimming action that a solid-body crankbait of the same size cannot replicate. Shallow diving clear lip. Size #6 single barb hooks on split rings. Wear-resistant painted finish. Available in 10 colour options spanning natural baitfish, chartreuse, black/red, camo and translucent patterns. Suited to light tackle finesse fishing for bream, bass, trout, perch and similar species in shallow water.

2-Section Jointed Body — Agile Swimming Action

The lure body is split into two sections joined by a pivot link — confirmed from the product images as “double section bait design, more agile swimming posture.” A solid-body crankbait of the same 35mm length produces a fixed wobble arc: the entire body rocks side to side as a rigid unit, producing a consistent but predictable action that fish in pressured or clear water can identify and refuse. A jointed crankbait produces an S-curve swimming motion — the front section and rear section rotate around the pivot independently, creating a compound wobble where the tail section amplifies and lags behind the front section’s movement. This creates the visual impression of a small baitfish with a flexing spine, and the variable amplitude produced at the tail as retrieve speed changes gives the lure a less mechanical action profile. At micro scale (35mm), the jointed action is especially pronounced relative to body length because the pivot sits at roughly the midpoint of a very short body, maximising the angular range of the tail section.

Shallow Diving Floating Action

The lure is classified Floating with a wide, flat clear plastic bill (lip) extending at approximately 45 degrees below the nose. At rest or on a pause, the lure floats at the surface. On the retrieve, water pressure on the lip forces the lure down — the angle and surface area of the lip determine dive depth; at this lip geometry and 2.6g body weight the lure is a shallow diver, reaching 0.3–0.8m depth on a straight retrieve at typical lure speeds. The floating action is a significant fish-catching asset: on a pause, the lure rises back toward the surface, triggering reaction strikes from fish that followed but did not commit during the retrieve. Twitch-pause-twitch retrieves with this lure produce a wounded baitfish action — dart on the twitch, rise on the pause — that is particularly effective for bream and trout in shallow estuary and stream environments.

Size #6 Single Barb Hooks

The lure is fitted with size #6 single barb hooks on split rings — confirmed from the product image captioned “sharp single hook, quick piercing without running fish; the barb hook tip it is not easy for fish to escape.” Single hooks rather than treble hooks on a micro crankbait of this size reduce snag risk in shallow, structured environments (weed, timber, rock) where a 35mm crankbait is most likely to be fished. A treble hook on a 35mm body presents three hook points extending in three directions; in structured water one or more points contacts structure almost every time the lure ticks a snag. Single hooks present one point in a predictable orientation. The #6 size is appropriate for the lure at this weight — large enough for a solid hook-up on bream and bass-sized fish, small enough not to impair the jointed action or unbalance the 2.6g body.

Wear-Resistant Coating — 10 Colour Options

The lure is finished with an exquisite wear-resistant coating confirmed to provide “multi-dimensional attraction of fish attention.” The 10 colour options cover the main presentation categories for finesse crankbait fishing:

• Natural baitfish patterns (speckled brown/gold, olive/black camo, silver/white): match-the-hatch presentations for clear water or post-frontal conditions where fish are selective; natural patterns are less likely to spook wary fish in shallow, clear estuaries and streams
• Chartreuse and neon green: high-visibility patterns for stained or tannin-coloured water where contrast triggers a reaction strike; effective in lowland rivers and dam arms where water clarity is reduced
• Black/red head: a classic contrasting pattern; the red head creates a focal point that fish target for the strike; effective in low light (dawn, dusk) and after rain when fish are aggressive
• Translucent patterns: semi-transparent body allows light transmission through the lure; creates a bioluminescent effect in low light conditions that mimics the translucent body of small juvenile baitfish

Target Species and Applications

• Bream: the 35mm body and 2.6g weight are ideal for bream in shallow estuaries, rock walls and timber snags; the single hook reduces snag-off risk in structure; natural patterns in clear water, chartreuse in stained conditions
• Bass and impoundment species: micro crankbaits excel for Australian bass and golden perch in impoundments; tight twitching around timber structure; shallow diving depth keeps the lure in the strike zone in 0.5–1m over weed
• Trout: 35mm crankbaits are a proven stream trout lure; the jointed body produces the right action profile at slow to medium retrieve speeds in current; natural and translucent patterns for clear mountain streams
• Flathead: micro crankbaits worked slowly over shallow sandy flats trigger flathead ambush strikes; the floating action means a pause-and-rise technique keeps the lure above the bottom
