About this piece
The Smith Cherry Blood Deep 90 is a floating minnow plug designed for targeting trout, especially in river and stream environments. It achieves deep diving performance without the heavy weight that often compromises the natural rolling action of a deep minnow. This lure is built to maintain tight, responsive movement while reaching depths of 1.8 to 2.3 meters.
Key features
- Weighs 10.2g and measures 90mm in length with a sharp rolling action.
- Floats at rest but dives quickly and tracks steadily at depth.
- Uses Owner Cultiva ST-36BC #6 hooks for reliable hooksets.
- Designed to cast equally as far as the standard medium-deep version.
- Offers a natural, horizontal posture during the retrieve.
Best for
- Targeted fishing for trout, cherry salmon (sakura masu), and char in rivers.
- Deep-diving presentations in flowing water where precise depth control is critical.
- Anglers who need a consistent-action deep minnow without excessive weight.
