I've seen lures come and go faster than a seagull snatching chips in my years running this online tackle shop. Some lures make a splash; others sink without a trace.

Sizes For Sale

The Nomad Design Squidtrex Lure comes in sizes that'll make your head spin faster than a baitcaster in a crosswind. Here's the lowdown I give to customers eyeing them up, whether they're planning to fish in popular Australian fishing spots or try out new saltwater fishing techniques:

✅ 55mm to 75mm: Perfect for those sneaky bream and flathead. It's like a gourmet meal for your inshore targets.

✅ 95mm to 110mm: We're talking snapper and smaller kingies. This is the sweet spot, folks.

✅ 130mm to 150mm: Break out the heavy artillery! These big boys are for when you're going fishing offshore and want to tangle with something that'll test your drag to its limit. They’re also excellent options for chasing inshore beasts in rivers like Mulloway.

Each size is designed to mimic a different squid species or life stage, giving you options for various Australian fishing spots. While each size and colour of Nomad Squidtrex Lure is sold separately, buying up on a few sizes from us here at the fishing tackle shop will be like creating your custom seafood menu in your tackle box. Pick and choose based on your target fish and fishing grounds!

Why Are Anglers Buying Squidtrex?

We know squid is like underwater candy for many saltwater fish along our Aussie coast. But what's got anglers wetting their lines over this particular lure? Word on the water is that it's all about that fancy vibration tech. When the Nomad Squidtrex lure is in motion, this tech creates a lifelike movement that mimics a squid's natural swimming pattern, combined with a squid shape that is so real you'd swear it could ink.

One of our die-hard customers - you know the type, probably sleeps in his boat - swears it's like ringing the dinner bell for every fish from here to Tassie. Is it that good? Well, put it this way - I'm restocking Squidtrex lures in my tackle shop more often than changing my socks! And that's saying something for a busy tackle shop like ours, where we're always on our toes with our tackle shop recommendations for the latest and greatest in fishing gear.

Squidtrex Fishing Techniques In More Detail

(:1f3a3:) Slow Hop Jigging: Imagine a cautious snapper lurking in the depths. Slow hop jigging is all about tempting that fishy friend with a subtle dance. Short, sharp lifts of the rod and a tantalizing pause mimic a wounded squid. It's a delicate art, but it's incredibly rewarding when done right.

(:1f3a3:) Fast Jigging: Looking to get those adrenaline levels pumping? Fast jigging is your ticket. Rip that rod, watch the Squidtrex dart, and dive like a panicked squid. This high-energy technique triggers feeding frenzy strikes and is perfect for luring those hard-fighting predators.

(:1f3a3:) Dead baiting: Sometimes, simplicity is key. Dead baiting is a classic technique that never fails to deliver. Let the current work magic as your Squidtrex drifts tantalizingly through the water column. Perfect for those lazy days when you want to relax and let the fish come to you.

(:1f3a3:) Slow Pitch Jigging: Slow pitch jigging is a refined art form that requires patience and precision. It's like having a secret conversation with the deep. The slow, rhythmic lifts of the rod mimic a squid's natural ascent, driving big fish wild.

Additional Tips: Remember, every fish is different, so don't be afraid to experiment with your approach. Try different sizes, colors, and retrieves to figure out what makes the fish bite. Pay attention to the bottom structure and adjust accordingly. These techniques can be effective in various Australian fishing spots, from Sydney Harbour to the remote beaches of Western Australia. Most importantly, enjoy the experience—fishing is as much about the journey as it is about the catch.

What Are the Fishos Saying?

While I haven't had the chance to personally test the Squidtrex yet (running a busy tackle shop keeps me on my toes!), I've got my ear to the ground and my notebook ready. I chat with anglers fresh off the water daily, each with a tale to tell. And let me tell you, the stories I've heard about the Nomad Squidtrex lure would fill a fisherman's almanac! So, based on the collective wisdom of our local fishing community, here's the lowdown on this buzzworthy lure:

(:1f44d:)The Good:

  • That vibration, doohickey? It's not just smoke and mirrors. I've had anglers swear they're pulling in fish from postcodes away, even in challenging Australian fishing spots!
  • Tough as nails, these things. Even the toothy critter chasers aren't chomping through them as fast like they usually do with other soft plastic squid lures.
  • The size range is a hit. It's like having a Swiss Army knife in your tackle box if you stock up on a range of sizes - there's one for every saltwater fishing technique you might want to try.

(:1f44e:)The Challenges:

  • They're not the cheapest lures on the shelf, I'll give you that. But as I always say, "You get what you pay for, and the big ones don't come cheap!"
  • There's a bit of a learning curve, especially if you're used to flicking softies. The Squidtrex requires different saltwater fishing techniques and an understanding how to make the most of its unique features. But from what I hear, you're laughing once you crack the code.
  • In water they're clearer than my ex wife's hints about taking out the trash, some fish get a bit suspenseful. That's fishing—sometimes the fish are smarter than we are!

Is It Worth Buying A Nomad Squidtrex Lure?

Look, I could tell you every lure in my online fishing tackle shop is the bee's knees, but that's not how we roll here. Here's my honest take on the Squidtrex:

If you're the type who gets a kick out of trying new tricks and doesn't mind investing in fishing gear that might give you bragging rights at the pub, the Nomad Squidtrex fishing lure could be right up your alley. From what I'm hearing, it's not just another flash in the pan but a proper game-changer for many saltwater fishing techniques. The excitement of trying new gear and techniques is part of the thrill of fishing, and the Squidtrex adds a new level of adventure to your saltwater fishing experience.

That said, it's not some magic fish-summoning device. There'll still be days when the fish are about as interested as a teenager at a family dinner. But when they're on? Well, let's say I've seen photo evidence that'd make your eyes pop!

The Bottom Line - Should You Buy A Squidtrex?

Fishing is about more than just filling the esky. It's about the thrill of the chase, the peace of being on the water, and the tales of the one that didn't get away.

From what I'm seeing and hearing, the Nomad Squidtrex adds some ripper chapters to many fishing stories. Will it do the same for you? Only one way to find out, isn't there? Buy a couple!

So, what do you reckon? Ready to get a bit squid-diculously adventurous with your fishing? Just remember - if you start hauling in monsters from your favourite Australian fishing spots, I expect photographic evidence. Pics, or it didn't happen, as the kids say!

Buy Nomad Squidtrex lures from us at the fishing tackle shop where we have been processing online orders since 2005. May your drags scream and your fish be camera-worthy!
