Frequently Asked Questions

What is Big Nate's XL Minnow Kit?

Capt. Big Nate's XL Minnow Kit is the exact trophy-trout setup he fished in the Catch America YouTube video. It loads five 5-packs of Trix Minnow XLs in Pink, Pearl, Space Pearl, Bubble Gum, and Nebula Purple, two full rigging kits, and one bottle of Chrome Killer.

What is included in the kit?

Five 5-count packs of 4-inch Trix Minnow XLs in Pink, Pearl, Space Pearl, Bubble Gum, and Nebula Purple, plus two full rigging kits and one bottle of Chrome Killer scent. The rigging kits and scent let you rig and dress the soft baits straight out of the box.

How do you fish the Trix Minnow XL for trophy trout?

The 4-inch XL soft-plastic minnow is a slow-troll bait. Rig it on the included rigging kit, add Chrome Killer scent, and troll slowly behind a dodger so the minnow rolls with a lifelike wobble. That full-size profile targets bigger trout hunting a real meal.

What colors come in the kit?

Five colors, one 5-pack each: Pink, Pearl, Space Pearl, Bubble Gum, and Nebula Purple. The range spans bright, natural pearl, and darker purple tones so you can match clarity and light. These are the shades Nate leaned on for the trophy fish in the video.

How do I restock the soft baits?

Reload with the Trix Minnow XL 4-inch 5-Pack in your best colors so you never run short of the profile Nate trusts. Fresh XLs keep your rigging kits working and let you swap shades until the trophy trout finally commit.
