SMITH LTD Lure 72mm Smelt D-Contact 9.5g #13

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Cautions for using electrical products】 When using electrical appliances, please note that the voltage is different from that of Japan, which may cause malfunctions. Since the plug type is Japan type(A or B type), please check the voltage and use a transformer. Please note that a transformer is different from a conversion adapter. We are not responsible for malfunctions caused by use without a transformer.

【Voltage Compatibility】 When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.

【Plug Type】 Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type). Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.

【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】 A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements. A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage. Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.

【Liability】 We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Main fish species: Trout Type: Heavy sinking Size: 72mm / Weight: 9.5g Color: Smelt #13 Hook: D-contact hook #8 ●1. Inertial slide that transitions to the slow speed range: This is a world not found in ordinary floating or sinking minnows. With conventional minnows, twitching causes them to repeatedly move, stop, move, and stop. When they "stop," they try to regain their balance using buoyancy (even sinking has buoyancy that helps them regain their balance), preventing them from moving forward and resulting in them "stopping." Due to its own weight, the D-CONTACT twists and moves forward while trying to regain its balance due to the law of inertia. This is inertial slide. Then it transitions to the slow speed range. In the continuous cycle of movement, inertial slide, movement, and inertial slide, fish are attracted by the "movement," and recognize the transition from the slower, yet still moving, inertial slide to the slow speed range as a chance to bite. This is similar to the way birds and animals catch their prey. ●2. It won't jump out even with a cross or down twitch: When fishing upstream, down-cross or down-casting is used less than 10% of the time, but there are always a few places where it's necessary. The D-CONTACT was developed as a minnow for fishing, with frequent upstream casting, and the ability to create a fluttering, darting, and wriggling sliding action with twitching. However, a minnow that focuses only on upstream casting will not feel as real in the field. While sinking minnows have weaknesses when twitching, the D-CONTACT maintains its potential whether you're fishing upriver, across, or downriver. There's no need to switch to a floating minnow when casting downriver. ●3. Range control: Because it has a considerable weight, it has a fast falling speed and can be used in deep waters. It can be used at various ranges by changing the retrieve, the interval between twitches, and the position of the rod tip. ●4. Long casting distance: All 50mm, 63mm and 72mm types have a fixed center of gravity slightly towards the rear, which allows for stable casting and a greater casting distance than conventional lures. When fishing against a headwind, you will appreciate the added weight. ●5. Making it appealing ●a. Visual appeal through shape change: The thin body and V-shaped design make the target fish aware of a big change with just a slight flutter or roll. When the target fish looks at the D-CONTACT from below, it looks thin, slim and fragile, but when it flutters or rolls, its shape changes completely, making the fish aware of the change. ●b. Different Reflected Light: Different holograms are attached to the mask and body to enhance their presence in the water. The coloring is also designed with both natural and attractive features in mind, making this a practical lineup. For example, the reflective efficiency of TS and TS Laser in the water is different. The same is true for Yamame and Yamame Laser. Black ring and hook specifications that bring out the lure's sparkle: The lure is finished in a neutral black color except for the body. The hook is a Kaken specification that allows for a clean piercing.
