Are multi-section minnows worth the extra cost?
Short answer
They fish differently: the joints give a swimming action a solid body cannot produce, and they are an assembly with joints and often a swivel, which is why our sample's most expensive row is a multi-section build at the lowest MOQ.
In detail
Whether it is worth it depends on whether your customer is buying the action or the silhouette.
