What is the difference between the Respect 190F and the 170F?

The 190F is 190 mm for 73 g, casts up to PE8 (180 lb leader) and takes a 3/0 treble. The 170F is 170 mm for 47 g, fishes on PE6 and takes a treble up to 2/0. The floating concept and rolling swim stay the same.

Why a floating minnow for big fish?

Because it keeps its swimming depth even at a steep line angle. That is decisive right against the rocks, where you want to keep the lure in the strike zone without it rising too soon.

Which species is the Respect effective on?

It was designed for giant trevally (GT) fished from shore, and it also works very well on amberjack, hiramasa and pelagics. Pair it with a suitable rod for the most committed fights.

Is the Respect strong enough for big fish?

Yes. It has a 1.8 mm steel through-wire and takes trebles up to 3/0 on the 190F, a build made for heavy fishing.

GoodBait Respect: floating minnow 170F & 190F, shore GT

Why we added the Respect to our range

The Respect is GoodBait's first minnow, born from a collaboration between Shin Yamada and the Japanese Uojarashi Koubou workshop. What convinced us to stock it is the promise kept: a compact 19 cm body that still takes a 3/0 treble, carried by a 1.8 mm through-wire. Enough to go after giant trevally from the shore without worrying about strength.

The floating minnow built for the fight from shore

Compact yet armed for giant trevally

The Respect is based on a simple idea: offer a saltwater floating minnow compact enough to pass for a believable prey, while accepting the hardware and mechanical strength the most powerful fish demand. At 190 mm (or 170 mm for the 170F), it stays in a "one bite" size that triggers, where bulkier lures leave wary fish unmoved. The 1.8 mm through-wire and the option of a 3/0 treble on the 190F make it a serious tool for giant trevally fished from the rocks. Its tight rolling swim works from the slowest speeds, which helps you exploit the white water right against the rocks.

190F or 170F: which to choose

Both sizes share the same floating concept but do not cover the same tackle. The 190F (73 g) casts on PE8 with a 180 lb leader and targets the most committed fishing, while the 170F (47 g) is happy on PE6 and takes trebles up to 2/0, ideal for amberjack and mid-size pelagics. The fact that these minnows float changes everything near the rocks: they keep their swimming depth even at a sharp line angle, which stops them rising at the wrong moment. To round out your approach, browse the shop's saltwater lures and pair the Respect with a rod for amberjack suited to big coastal fish.
