Price from $15.39 View products

Fast-sinking trout lures for precise fishing in river currents

Smith D-Compact 45 is a fast-sinking trout lure measuring 1.8 inches (4.5 cm) and weighing 3.5 g, designed primarily for fishing small and medium-sized rivers. Its compact body and fixed tungsten weight provide excellent control in flowing water, allowing anglers to work the lure precisely and maintain the desired depth. The D-Compact 45 combines a pronounced wobbling action with body rolling, creating an attractive presentation even during a steady retrieve. Its flat sides reflect light, while short rod twitches produce quick darting movements and distinctive flashes. The carefully balanced body also allows the lure to glide briefly after each twitch, closely imitating the movements of a small baitfish. This sinking minnow maintains a stable action in strong currents and can be fished upstream, downstream or across the flow. It is particularly useful for targeting trout around rocky sections, deeper runs and holding areas where precise lure presentation is essential. Anglers can use a steady retrieve or alternate short twitches with brief pauses to vary the lure's action. Smith D...
