The Pat. Pending SLIPSTREAM 280 Flying Fish is a revolutionary heavy duty Hybrid lure that has been designed to perfectly mimic a flying fish in both appearance and action in the water. It is extremely versatile and can be cast, trolled, or fished from a kite, with a huge variety of rigging options to suit your specific style of fishing.
The unique folding wing design allows the wings to fold back when cast for extra distance or when fighting big Tuna and Marlin for reduced drag through the water. The wings, tail fin and side fins can all be changed or replaced with Nomad Design Wing Sets to create your own ultimate flying fish colour scheme.
Designed to be trolled up to 10kn, the through body rigging means it can be rigged like a conventional skirted lure to slide up the leader when fighting a fish, ensuring fish stay hooked. When kite fishing, the hook holder channel along the top of the body allows the hook to sit perfectly positioned but completely concealed, meaning the only thing the fish see from below is a completely natural looking flying fish skipping along the surface.
Every predator in the ocean loves to eat flying fish, and the Nomad Design Slipstream 280 has been crafted by decades of experience on the water to be tougher, last longer and to catch big fish.
Pat. Pending folding wing design allows less drag when being dragged backwards by big fish
underwater, allows the ability to cast the lure as the wings fold and ensures less damage to the wings when fighting fish.
The wing design allows for wings to be changed and replaced using stainless steel nuts and bolts and using a solid and strong block on the side of the body. Change the wings when damaged, or just create a unique colour combination for your location.
The unique design of the Slipstream Flying Fish allows for multiple rigging options with the ability to slide the leader through a channel in the middle of the body. A first in an ABS plastic lure, it means the lure can slide free of the hook when fighting fish and creates multiple rigging solutions.
Normal plastic was simply not strong enough for our lures, so we designed a special formula of High Density ABS plastic, which is a white colour, and is ultimately stronger than any other plastic used for lure production. These lures feature a thicker wall construction, meaning
ultimate strength and durability.
