The Nomad Heavy Duty DTX Minnow has been built to withstand the toughest predators in the ocean, ideal for tuna, wahoo, dolphin, marlin, king mackerel and many other predatory fish. The Nomad Heavy Duty DTX Minnow is a revolution in trolling lures, featuring their patent pending Autotune System, Metal Matrix Plate system, Diamond Armour internal strength system and Hydrospeed belly eyelet technology. Ideal for the toughest predatory fish like tuna, wahoo, king mackerel and dolphin, the Nomad Heavy Duty DTX Minnow should be your first choice for bluewater diving lures.
- The Autotune System gives the DTX Minnows consistent and controlled diving depths. The DTX220HD Minnow (9″ Size) will swim deeper and faster than any other DTX Minnow and can be rolled between 4-14kts, and will reach a maximum depth of 50+ feet when trolled at 5-9 knots, and 80-100yds behind the boat.
- The DTX200HD Minnow (8″ Size) can be trolled at over 12 knots and will reach a maximum depth of 40ft+ when trolled at 8-10 knots, and 80-100yds behind the boat.
When rigging the Nomad Heavy Duty DTX Minnows you should keep connections as small as possible to help achieve greater depths. The smaller the connection and leader material, the deeper the DTX Minnows will go. We recommend using 100-150lb fluorocarbon leader with a crimped connection to the solid ring. When targeting toothy fish a single strand wire of around 120-175lb breaking strain, or multi strand cable of up to 275lb is best.
