Smith D-Contact Type-II 50 #32 Kuro

The Smith D-Contact Type-II is a specially weighted variant of the classic D-Contact, designed to provoke strikes from lethargic trout. Featuring a center-balance design, it achieves a horizontal, fluttering fall that triggers feeding responses even in tough conditions. Revived in 2025 due to popular demand, it retains the proven color lineup of the original D-Contact Aki.

Key features

• Center-balance design delivers a horizontal, fluttering fall
• Heavier weight (5g) maintains slow sink rate through wobble
• Larger, more erratic twitch movements compared to standard D-Contact
• Same trusted color patterns as the D-Contact Aki series (except #39)
• Equipped with a sharp D-Contact size #12 hook

Best for

• Targeting inactive trout in deep pools or cold water
• Late-season yamame and other wary native trout
• High-temperature summer conditions when fish are reluctant to chase
• Pressured fisheries where a subtle, natural presentation is key
