You can thread a leader through yur minnow without killing it.

Nothing new here.  We used the them (called a strip-on) over 50 years ago.

But ain't those strip on's hard wire? These let your minnow swim around like normal....but it has a treble hook hanging out it's ass.

I think you better get a quick bite.  Somehow I don't think a minnow that had a rod rammed down it throat and out it's butt is long for this world.
