If I want to throw a really small bait, I apply the 2.5" Carrot where I used to throw the small "Popcorn Beetles". I throw the 3" Skinny Carrot for most of my small stuff but when I want a little thicker bait, it's the 3" Glider. I prefer the 4" Skinny (4" Finesse Worm) on a Jighead, above all else in the Salt. Tail-horizontal, that little Flapjack would be really tiny. The 2.5" Carrot, IMHO, would be a more minnow-like bait, and a better choice/offering, unless You've had requests for a bait like the Flapjack and are lookin' for a smaller bait. But my #1 straight-tailed bait in the Salt is the Skinny4. Alot of guys prefer the Regular3.5.
