About this piece
The Smith D-Direct 55 is a heavy sinking deep minnow designed to reach unexplored depth zones. Its forced rapid dive targets deep-lying trout, while the inertial slide action conquers dead zones with a combination of wobble, roll, slide, and dart movements.
Key features
- Heavy sinking minnow with fixed-center gravity for stable diving.
- Forced rapid dive targets deep-lying trout.
- Inertial slide action produces wobble, roll, slide, and dart.
- Excellent flat-stroke avoidance during bottom contact.
- Detailed construction similar to the D-Contact series.
Best for
- Deep trout fishing in lakes and reservoirs.
- Anglers targeting suspended fish in deep water columns.
- Techniques requiring precise bottom contact and erratic action.
