Nomad Design Reef Fishing Lures

WINTER REEF SEASON

Winter offers some of the best reef fishing opportunities of the year. With extended offshore weather windows and fish holding deeper on productive structure, anglers can target a wide range of reef species including Coral Trout, Nannygai and Red Emperor. From deep-water jigging to fishing vibration baits over isolated reefs and pinnacles, having the right setup helps you stay in the strike zone longer and maximise every opportunity.

YOUR WINTER ASRSENEL

WORLD FAMOUS

SQUIDTREX

The Squidtrex has developed a reputation as one of the most versatile offshore fish catchers available. Combining vibration, profile and lifelike squid action, it excels when reef species are holding close to structure and feeding aggressively.
Its ability to fish effectively through the entire water column makes it a proven producer when traditional presentations aren't getting bites.

WHY CHOOSE SQUIDTREX?

Strong vibration helps fish locate the lure in deep water.
Fast sink rate gets you into the strike zone quickly.
Can be fished vertically, cast and retrieved or slow lifted through structure.
Highly effective on Coral Trout, Nannygai, Red Emperor and mixed reef species.
Durable TPE body stands up to repeated strikes from hard-fighting reef fish.

TWITCHBAIT TECHNIQUES

VIBING

VERTREX MAX

When fish are holding hard against the bottom, the Vertrex delivers powerful vibration and maximum strike-triggering action. The compact profile gets down quickly and maintains contact in deeper water, allowing anglers to cover ground efficiently while staying in the strike zone.

WHY CHOOSE VERTREX?

Compact profile cuts through current and reaches depth quickly.
Powerful vibration creates maximum attraction near structure.
Ideal for vertical presentations over reefs, pinnacles and wrecks.
Allows anglers to cover water efficiently while maintaining bottom contact.
Proven performer on reef species holding hard against the bottom.

JIG CHOICE

RIDGEBACK

A versatile all-rounder with an erratic action that triggers bites on both the lift and fall. Perfect for mixed reef species and changing conditions.

STREAKER

Built for deeper water and stronger current, the Streaker gets down fast and excels when fish are actively feeding.

BUFFALO

Designed for maximum flash and flutter, the Buffalo is ideal when fish are feeding higher in the water column or when prospecting new ground.

GYPSEA

When fish are holding tight to the bottom, the Gypsea's slow pitch action and long flutter on the fall keep it in the strike zone longer.

GO DEEP WITH JIGS

Jigging remains one of the most effective ways to target fish holding on deep reef structure. Whether you're working offshore pinnacles, reef edges or isolated rubble patches, choosing the right jig allows you to fish deeper and stay in the strike zone longer.

WHY CHOOSE NOMAD JIGS?

Designed to get to depth quickly and fish effectively in current.
Multiple actions available for different conditions and fish behaviour.
Balanced designs create maximum movement on the lift and fall.
Premium construction built to withstand repeated offshore use.
Proven on Coral Trout, Nannygai, Red Emperor and other reef species.

SOFT PLASTICS

REEF JERKSHADS

When fish are feeding on bait, soft plastics offer a natural presentation that can be deadly around reef structure.

JERKSQUID
With a lifelike squid and baitfish profile, the JerkSquid excels when fish are actively feeding and looking for a larger meal.

DOUBLE DOWN
The Double Down's dual tail action creates maximum vibration and movement, making it ideal for covering water and targeting active reef fish.

CHOOSE YOUR SOFT PLASTIC
JerkSquid — For a natural presentation around structure and bait schools.
