The Nomad Design Slipstream Flying Fish is a fishing lure that is designed to mimic a flying fish in both appearance and action in the water. It features a unique folding wing design that allows the wings to fold back when cast, improving the distance that it can be cast and reducing drag when fighting large tuna and marlin.
One of the standout features of this lure is its ability to be customized. The wings, tail fin, and side fins can all be changed or replaced with Nomad Design flying fish wing sets, allowing you to create your own unique color scheme for the lure.
The Slipstream Flying Fish is designed to be trolled at speeds up to 8-9 knots. It can be rigged through the body, like a conventional skirted lure, which allows it to slide up the leader when fighting a fish, ensuring that the fish stays hooked. Additionally, when kite fishing, the lure has a hook holder channel along the top of the body that allows the hook to be concealed, giving the lure a natural appearance as it skims along the surface of the water.
This versatile lure can be used for casting, trolling, or fishing from a kite. It offers a wide range of rigging options to suit your specific style of fishing. It is particularly effective for targeting larger predator fish, as they are known to have a preference for flying fish prey.
The Slipstream Flying Fish features a Matrix Metal Plate System, which consists of a stainless steel plate in the body mold of the lure. This adds durability and strength to the lure. Additionally, it is made with high-density ABS plastic, known as the HD ABS System, further enhancing its durability. The lure is also equipped with BKK hooks, ensuring that you can have confidence in your hookset. The internal diamond grid pattern adds further strength to the lure.
