Hi-Standard 97S

Longin's Hi-Standard 97S represents the new generation of sinking minnows, designed to deliver top-level swimming and casting performance. Developed from the expertise of the Longin team, this compact 97mm model inherits the performance of the renowned Hi-Standard 120, but in a more manageable and versatile size, ideal for tackling a wide range of fishing conditions throughout the year. It features an exceptionally natural and responsive action: the front-mounted lip precisely catches the water flow, allowing for an immediate start and a lively, well-balanced movement. A fin keel located beneath the lip controls excess rolling and creates a perfect blend of rolling and wobbling, producing a tight wobble-roll action with strong fish-attracting power. When the current changes or the lure loses balance, the keel reacts to the water's resistance, creating a natural slide action, a subtle irregular motion that triggers the curiosity and strikes of predators. The Hi-Standard 97S is finely tuned to explore depths between 40 and 100 cm with stability and fluidity, ensuring a realistic and controlled swimming action at all times. Its technical excellence also extends to casting: three 5mm tungsten balls shift to the tail during the cast, increasing propulsion and maintaining initial energy, allowing the lure to reach exceptional distances with a straight, accurate trajectory. The aerodynamic body shape and the fin keel under the lip act as stabilizers, ensuring perfect air penetration and flight stability even in strong headwinds or crosswinds. Perfect for targeting sea bass, bluefish and other coastal predators, the Hi-Standard 97S combines cutting-edge technology, casting power and irresistible action in a compact, perfectly balanced body.
