Nomad Design

The DTX MINNOW 5-1/2" is a revolution in trolling minnows, featuring Patented Nomad Autotune™, Gorilla Through Wire and Hydrospeed advanced design technology - the DTX Minnow is in a class of its own.

The DTX 5-1/2" Minnow features a wider body and bib design for more body roll and wiggle, designed to get far more lure action at slower speeds, but in a design that can also handle being trolled fast. The body is weighted so it works perfectly as either a casting or trolling lure. 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 Nomad designed Autotune™ tow point and bib system, this lure just keeps swimming deep, straight, and true, first time every time, no matter how many bites it takes.

The DTX 5-1/2” Minnow can be trolled up to 10 knots and will reach a depth of 26ft+ at all speeds. Ideal for everything from Bluewater Pelagics through to large inshore predators or freshwater predators, the DTX 140 Minnow will be your first choice for casting or trolling.

Designed and tested in Australia by the Nomad Sportfishing Team, Nomad Design lures are not only super tough and durable, but also feature unique colours 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.

Features:

Autotune DTX - Patented Autotune™ Technology designed by Nomad founder Damon Olsen. Allows the lure to self centre, run at very high speeds, and go super deep when trolling. Creates more swimming action - it's why DTX Minnows catch more fish than any other offshore hardbait.
Hydrospeed Eyelet - The Hydrospeed belly eyelet has been hydrodynamically tested and designed to allow maximum trolling speed and provide the optimum hookup ratio when using single hooks in large trolling lures. The
concealed towpoint allows the lure to be trolled much faster than a
conventional lure.
Diamond Armour - Proprietary internal design process used with clear ABS plastic bodies, designed to dramatically increase strength. The internal diamond mesh grid pattern creates an internal framework to strengthen the body of the lure, making it far less likely to be crushed or cracked by large predators.
Gorilla Through Wire - This through wire system has the wire bend around a set of extra plastic supports internally, making the wire less likely to separate from the lure body, and ensuring ultimate strength. The through wire is also welded at both ends to ensure you never lose that big fish.
