Description

The shallow running DTX MINNOW 5-3/4” is a revolution in trolling minnow, featuring Patented Nomad Autotune™ , Gorilla Through Wire and Hydrospeed advanced design technology - the DTX Minnow is in a class of its own. The DTX Minnow 5-3/4” will reach a depth of 10ft when trolled at 8-10 knots. This super tough lure is ideal for everything from bluewater pelagics through to large estuary or freshwater predators and will be your first choice in bluewater trolling lures. The unique body shape design creates a distressed baitfish swimming action, and the concealed Hydrospeed belly eyelet allows for faster trolling speeds than conventional tow points. Combined with the Nomad Autotune™ tow point and bib system, the lure just keeps swimming deep, straight, and true, first time every time. Designed and tested in Australia by the Nomad Sportfishing team, Nomad Design lures are not only super tough and durable, feature unique colors and are designed to have highly effective shapes and actions. Every Nomad Design lure has been crafted by decades of experience on the water to be tougher, last longer and to catch more fish.

Field Notes

Best for trolling at 8-10 knots when you want a shallow-running minnow that tracks straight at speed. Use it around estuaries, inshore structure, or offshore bait schools where a distressed baitfish profile will draw strikes.

Pros

  • Runs true at high trolling speeds
  • Reaches about 10 ft when trolled
  • Tough through-wire construction

Cons

  • Primarily a trolling lure, not ideal for slow casting presentations
  • Depth is limited compared with deeper-diving minnows
