Description

The Smith D-Contact 63 is the mid-size model in Smith's D-Contact range, a heavy sinking minnow built around an internal tungsten weight that gives the slim body serious casting distance and a fast, controlled fall. At 63mm and 7g it produces the "inertia slide" action the range is known for: after a twitch the lure keeps sliding and twisting on its own momentum before settling into a slow drift, which is when most takes come.

It's fitted with a D-Contact #10 hook and holds its action through upstream, cross and downstream retrieves, making it a versatile choice for reaching further out and working deeper water on trout streams.

Information

The swimming action

The mid-size D-Contact 63 produces the range's 'inertia slide': after a twitch it keeps sliding and twisting on its own momentum before settling into a slow drift, the pause where most takes come.

When to throw it

At 63mm and 7g it casts a serious distance and holds its action through upstream, cross and downstream retrieves, useful for reaching further out and working deeper water on trout streams.

How to work it

Twitch it and let the slide and drift develop fully before the next move, using the extra reach to cover water the smaller D-Contact 50 can't comfortably work.

The setup it likes

Suits a light-medium stream rod, a 2000-2500 reel, 4-6 lb main line and a fluorocarbon leader around the same strength.

Will I be charged import duty or tax?
