Nomad Design DTX Minnow Shallow Floating 145mm
The 85, 100, 120 & 145 floating DTX models feature a different bib shape and wider body than sinking DTX models. These sizes are designed for more action at slower speeds, while still being able to handle high speeds. The Autotune system also imparts more action and wiggle on the lure body. Floating DTX minnows are amazing casting lures, crash dive very deep, and are easy to work over structure.
Great swimming action and diving depth at slow speeds make DTX 85-120 floating models perfect for casting and trolling applications where depth and slow speeds are key to getting strikes. The DTX145 is extremely versatile with a working trolling speed from 2 to 10 knots and can be trolled from kayaks right through to offshore boats targeting species like Wahoo.
The DTX Minnow has raised the bar in trolling minnow performance and features the pat. pending Autotune system. Developed over years of R&D the Autotune system gives the lure the ability to perfectly center itself at the two-point delivering 3 key benefits, the ability to ensure the lure always swims straight, increasing diving depth, and increased swim speed. This combination makes it unique in the world of offshore trolling minnows.
A self-centering two-point ensures that no matter how many fish you catch, the lure will keep swimming straight. Conventional lures with a fixed tow point cannot all be made perfectly centered to swim straight. The ability of the Autotune system to perfectly center itself every time on the bib means that the two points can be pushed as far back on the bib as possible, meaning maximum diving depth and better action combined with higher troll speeds.
Other key features of the DTX range include:
- Hydrospeed belly eyelet for maximum trolling speed.
- HD ABS System, an extra strong white plastic for overall strength and durability.
- Diamond Armour internal mesh system, internal strengthening design for transparent colours. (145)
- Gorilla Through Wire, welded and supported for extra strength. (120, 140)
- Heavy duty BKK hooks and terminals.
