Smith D-Contact 50 #32 Chart Yamame

The Smith D-Contact is a heavy-sinking minnow that revolutionized mountain stream lure fishing with its unique inertia slide action. Its high-density tungsten weights (density 18) provide a substantial 4.5 grams in a compact 50mm body, while the ultra-thin profile delivers exceptional casting distance, depth penetration, and directional control.

Key features

• Inertia slide action keeps the lure gliding forward during pauses, unlike traditional minnows.
• Performs consistently in all casting angles: upstream, cross-current, and downstream.
• Fast sinking weight and responsive design allow precise depth targeting.
• Thin, "ひら" body shape and rolling action create strong visual appeal.
• Laser and holographic color patterns enhance underwater reflection and presence.
• Non-body parts are blacked out, paired with sharp chemically treated hooks.

Best for

• Mountain stream trout fishing
• Targeting native trout in deep pools and currents
• Anglers requiring long, accurate casts in tight cover
