A little more bait behind the head
Pair it with a light jig head when you want a compact presentation with more visible profile than a 1.25" micro bait. Keep the hook proportional so the legs remain free to move.
A 1.75" finesse Urchin with a rounded center and longer radiating legs for more presence, glide and hang time while keeping the action subtle.
The Table Rock Baits 1.75" Micro Finesse Urchin takes the small rounded-center Urchin profile and stretches it into a more visible finesse bait. Longer radiating legs add presence, glide and hang time while preserving the subtle movement that makes this style useful when fish are following without committing.
The 1.75" profile gives fish a little more to find and track than a true micro bait, which makes it useful when you still want finesse but need more presence in the water.
Pair it with a light jig head when you want a compact presentation with more visible profile than a 1.25" micro bait. Keep the hook proportional so the legs remain free to move.
Fish it beneath a float or through a controlled drift when you want the bait to stay in the strike zone. The longer legs can continue to move while the center body remains an easy target.
The larger profile fits light hover-style and BFS presentations when a true micro bait feels too small but a standard bass plastic is more than you want.
Use a hook that holds the center securely without extending so far through the bait that it limits the surrounding legs. With an Urchin profile, preserving free movement around the body is part of the presentation.

Small shakes, controlled lifts, pauses, slow swims and natural drifts are enough to keep the legs moving. The bait does not need a hard retrieve to maintain a visible profile.
Move to the 1.75" when fish are willing to look at a slightly larger target, when you need the bait to show up better around suspended fish, or when BFS gear lets you fish a larger finesse profile with good control.
Size, fall rate, hook fit and depth control can change how an Urchin fishes as much as the bait itself.
