Description

The DTX MINNOW 8” Heavy Duty is a revolution in trolling minnows, featuring the Patented Autotune ™ System, Metal Matrix Plate system, Diamond Armour internal strength system and Hydrospeed belly eyelet technology, the DTX Heavy Duty series is in a class of its own. The DTX 8” Minnow can be trolled at over 12 knots and will reach a maximum depth of over 40ft+ when trolled at 8-10 knots and 80-100yds. Ideal for the toughest predatory fish like Tuna, Wahoo, Mackerel and Mahi Mahi, the DTX Minnow is 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 faster trolling speeds than conventional tow points. Combined with the Patented Autotune ™ self-tuning towpoint, this lure keeps swimming deep, straight, and true, first time every time. Designed and tested in Australia, Nomad Design lures are not only super tough and durable, but also feature unique colors and most importantly unique and highly effective shapes and actions. Each lure has been designed for a specific purpose and has been balanced and tested to work perfectly with the chosen hooks. Every Nomad Design lure has been crafted by decades of experience on the water to be tougher, last longer and to catch big fish.

Field Notes

Designed for high-speed bluewater trolling for large pelagic predators. It can be trolled fast and deep, making it a strong choice when covering water offshore and targeting fish holding below the surface. Best used with heavy trolling tackle and steady boat speed to keep the lure tracking true.

Pros

  • Reaches over 40 ft when trolled at speed
  • Built for very high trolling speeds
  • Durable heavy-duty construction
  • Self-tuning towpoint helps it track straight

Cons

  • Specialized offshore lure, not for casual casting
  • Requires trolling setup and boat speed
  • Large profile may be overkill for smaller fish
