Nomad Squidtrex

[NAGG]

Now who doesn't like a good squid lure ?

I managed to pick up a couple of these bad boys yesterday - before they hit the shelves Squidtrex.jpg


These are the 130mm ones (92 grams)

They come in 4 sizes & the 130mm is the second largest . (Cost $25 ish)

They come in some great colours , use BKK hooks
They look like they will be quite durable too - I like that the candles are extra stretchy (not unlike a ZMan)

At this size & weight - they should be awesome for fishing those deeper waters & I plan to give them a good go on the Samson grounds off Evans Had in the next week or so
I'd imagine these will be a killer on those North Qld reds/ nannies etc ...... but my guess everything will eat them

Anyhow they should be in the tackle stores now .... or close to it Check em out!

Amazing what a little Youtube can do for promoting our latest Toys lol.

The smaller vertrex is one of my favorite flathead lures when the water is over say 2 meters deep , I take the trebles off and just have a double on the rear , less foul ups on casting and I hate trebles , a flathead thrashing around in a landing net can tie tangles you couldn't imagine and I don't want one in my hand , silver color is my favorite.

I've used the chasebaits for the last 4 or 5 years (have a nice collection) & they work well - the downside is how they are rigged & the candles are torn off real easy

without using one yet I reckon these things are something else though - ditto for the Daiwa soft shell for smaller species .

My only concern was the hooks looked a tad on the smallish side and tinny ??.

Look ok(ish) on the 130 - BKK hooks are pretty well top of the tree these days so no concerns for me ...... I should know in the next couple of weeks

easy enough to go up a size though

So they are supposed to be , will have to suss out some BKK hooks see if they look the same ??.
Otherwise they are look the goods .
Will try the 95s for Fingermark, Grunter inside and keep the 110 in heavier run.
Do the job I'll certainly get some 130s n 150s.

They look like they would be good for some Red Empire up your way do you ever fish the Gutter that runs out to Tyron ?.
