Smith D-Contact Type-II 50 #35 Orange TS Laser

The D-Contact Type-II by Smith is a heavy sinking minnow designed to entice inactive trout with its unique horizontal falling action. Based on fan requests, this model revives an autumn color scheme and excels in deep, high-temperature, or high-pressure situations. Its balanced weight distribution keeps the lure in the strike zone longer, triggering bites with a twitch-and-pause retrieve.
