The Nomad Design Slipstream Flying Fish lure is designed to resemble a flying fish in both appearance and action underwater. Its hybrid design is built to be durable and reliable. One of its standout features is the folding wing design, which allows the wings to fold back when casting for increased distance. This design feature is also beneficial when fighting larger fish like tuna and marlin, as it reduces drag in the water.
You have the option to customize the lure's appearance by changing or replacing the wings, tail fin, and side fins with Nomad Design flying fish wing sets. This flexibility allows you to create your own unique color scheme for the ultimate flying fish lure.
The Slipstream Flying Fish is designed to be trolled at speeds of up to 8-9 knots. It features through body rigging, which means you can rig it like a conventional skirted lure. This rigging allows the lure to slide up the leader during a fish fight, ensuring that the fish stays hooked.
When using the lure for kite fishing, the hook holder channel along the top of the body comes in handy. It allows the hook to be positioned perfectly and remains concealed, giving the lure a more natural appearance when viewed from below. This design feature makes the lure appear as if a real flying fish is skipping along the water's surface.
In addition to trolling and kite fishing, the Slipstream Flying Fish lure can also be cast into schools of feeding fish or used in various other fishing situations where mimicking a flying fish is desired. Its versatility makes it suitable for any angler's specific fishing style.
This lure is particularly effective in attracting big predator fish, as they are known to be drawn to flying fish. It utilizes a Matrix Metal Plate System, which includes a stainless steel plate in the body mold of the lure. This enhances its durability and ensures its longevity. The lure is also made with high-density ABS plastic, known as the HD ABS System, further contributing to its strength and reliability.
To ensure a successful hookset, the Slipstream Flying Fish lure is equipped with BKK hooks. These hooks are designed to provide confidence and reliability in hooking and landing your target fish. The lure also features an internal diamond grid pattern, which adds to its overall appeal and effectiveness.
