Saltwater Lures

Luhr Jensen Crippled Herring is highly effective at catching fish due to its spoon shape, which can be bent for a more unpredictable descent. This spoon is equally suitable for retrieving or vertical fishing, and is particularly successful when targeting fish schooling, at intermediate depths, or bounced off the bottom.

These P-Line Ling Cod Rigs are ready to hit the water.  They include the line, swivels, hooks, and two plastic squids.  The Ling Cod Rig is a larger version of the highly effective Rock Cod Rig. At 5 inches these squid are the perfect length for larger ling cod. This version is also tied on 50 pound leader, but uses a larger 7/0 hook. When it’s time to load the cooler with a limit of Ling Cod you’d better have one of these rigs in your arsenal.

Here at Tackle Express, we like to put a small piece of squid or some gel fish attractant on the squid.  The gel scent can be Hookup Baits Mermaid Milk, Smelly Jelly, Hot Sauce, or any kind of scent that stays on well.  We like to put it inside the squid so it releases slowly. 

Add a weight that is heavy enough to get to the depth of water you're fishing, hit the bottom and jig it up and down 3 feet at a time using the rod tip.  After a few times, send it to the bottom again since the terrain can change as the boat drifts.

Shimano Butterfly Flat-Fall Jigs Size 300g are the ticket for big tuna, ling cod, and many other species.  Drop the jig down to the bottom, then crank it up 30 feet off the bottom and free spool.

The center balanced jig falls with a wobbling action in a horizontal position, keeping the strike zone longer than the Butterfly jig. Great lure for the local big tuna. Designed for our west coast fishery the Shimano Butterfly Flat-Fall Jigs Size 300g and 350g come un-rigged allowing for you to properly rig it for the specific class fish you are targeting.

HOW TO STORE

Our Vertrex Vibes are made from TPE Ultra-Tough Material. Like most other plastics on the market, it’s important not to store two different types of plastics together as they can cause a chemical reaction, which can deform the plastics.

Below are some tips for storing your TPE-based Nomad Design lures:
- Where possible, store your TPE lure in the original packaging or within the Nomad Vertrex Storage Box – these are the safest options.
- If you prefer to store your lure in a tackle box, ensure that the tackle box is “worm proof” Worm proof boxes are specifically designed not to react with soft plastic materials.
- Do not store TPE lures with non-TPE lures.

REMEMBER: You can store TPE products of the same brand altogether, but they must be kept separate from other branded TPE products and non-TPE plastics.

The Nomad Tackle Buffalo is a Slow Pitch Jig, or often called a flatfall jig. It is centre balanced and will fall with a fluttering action enticing the fish to strike as the lure falls. It is ideal for sinking through schools of tuna haning deep, or using for reef species hanging down deep when worked with long slow flicks of the rod.

The Buffalo comes rigged with a super strong and super sharp BKK assist hook rigged on the tail of the jig to assist with the slower fall rate. One of the most effective jig styles imaginable.

The Rapala X-Rap XRMAG-10 dives down to 10 feet while trolling.  Each lure is tank tested and approved by the Rapala staff and is guaranteed to swim true.  The hooks are 4X strong and the hardware is matched so you won't loose fish due to equipment failure. We recommend not changing hooks or split rings out as they are perfectly matched for the lure.  We sharpen our hooks if they dull but if you need to change them out, they are VMC hooks. 

You can troll these lures up to 10 knots but we always pull them at 7 to 8 knots. The smaller baits like the 10 and 15 size require smaller line in the 40 to 50lb range.  With this smaller line the lure will swim better and track better.  If you need to cover water in order to get bit, these are the ticket.

The Submission Fishing Slow Death Jigs Javelin are excellent for fishing different parts of the water column. The jig has a side to side gliding action once pitched and allowed to fall on free spool. Unlike most traditional tear-drop jigs, it has a distinct flat shape on one side and a tear-drop convex shape on the other which produces the long horizontal slide when slow pitching or long falling the jig. These jigs get right to where your fish are waiting, whether you’re targeting tuna and bonito or rockfish and sand bass.
