The Nomad Riptide Lure is a high-performance stickbait designed for anglers targeting powerful saltwater predators such as Giant Trevally, tuna, and other pelagic species. Built with Nomad’s advanced Matrix Metal Plate technology, HD-ABS body construction, Gorilla Through Wire system, and HD Foam core, this lure delivers exceptional strength, durability, and reliability in extreme fishing conditions.
The floating (FLT / Fatso FLT) models are engineered to create a wide S-curve swimming action on retrieve, producing strong surface disturbance and lifelike movement. A long sweep of the rod allows the lure to dive just under the surface before rolling and swimming naturally, mimicking distressed baitfish and triggering aggressive strikes.
The sinking variants (FSNK / SNK / SSNK) are optimized for sub-surface fishing, featuring precise internal weight distribution for long casting and controlled sinking performance. These models excel with a “walk-the-dog” style retrieve below the surface, allowing the lure to turn sharply and create erratic movements that imitate injured prey.
With multiple sizes, actions, and weights, the Nomad Riptide range offers versatility for various fishing conditions, making it a reliable choice for both offshore and inshore casting applications.
