The Nomad Design Slipstream Flying Fish is a lure that is designed to mimic the action and appearance of a flying fish. It has a unique folding wing design that allows the wings to fold back when cast, which increases the distance it can be cast and reduces drag in the water when fighting big fish like tuna and marlin. The wings, tail fin, and side fins of the lure can all be changed or replaced with different wing sets, allowing you to customize the color scheme of your lure.
This lure is designed to be trolled at speeds of 8-9 knots and can be rigged like a conventional skirted lure, sliding up the leader when fighting a fish to ensure the fish stays hooked. When kite fishing, the hook holder channel along the top of the body allows the hook to be positioned perfectly and concealed, so that the only thing the fish sees from below is a natural-looking flying fish skipping along the surface.
The Nomad Design Slipstream Flying Fish can also be cast into schools of feeding fish or used in any other fishing situation where mimicking a flying fish would be effective. It is a versatile lure that can be cast, trolled, or fished from a kite, and there are many different rigging options available to suit your specific fishing style. It is ideal for chasing big predator fish, as they all have an appetite for flying fish.
The lure is built with a Matrix Metal Plate System, which includes a stainless steel plate in the body mold of the lure, and a HD ABS System, made with high-density ABS plastic. It is also equipped with BKK hooks, so you can have confidence in your hookset. The lure features an internal diamond grid pattern for added visual appeal.
