About the model

The Smith Cherry Blood MD90 is a floating, medium-deep minnow for larger rivers, main currents, and current edges where casting distance, precision, and stable action are crucial.

With a 90mm body, 9.5g weight, and a working depth of around 1–1.5 meters, the MD90 is designed to cover the water column between shallow minnows and deeper deep-running models. It is well-suited for when fish are just below the surface, but not so deep that you need a powerful deep runner.

The Cherry Blood MD90 has a tight and stable action in current, a clear rolling motion, and a rattling construction that provides an extra signal in larger bodies of water. This model is particularly relevant when you want to fish precisely towards current edges, breaks, channels, and holding lies where large trout, sea trout, or salmon follow baitfish in the main current.

KEY DATA Technical Specifications

The Cherry Blood MD90 is built for precise fishing in medium-deep water. Its aerodynamic shape, stable balance, and floating construction allow for long casts, controlled depth, and a sharp rolling action that performs well in current.

WALK AND RESPONSE This is how it works in the water

The Smith Cherry Blood MD90 has a tight and controlled medium-deep action that makes it well-suited for main currents and larger river sections. It dives quickly to its working depth and remains stable at around 1–1.5 meters when fished with consistent retrieval.

The rolling movement is one of its key features. As the body twists in the water, the sides produce a clear flash, creating a lively visual rhythm. This makes the MD90 effective when fish follow the lure over a longer distance and need a steady but distinct trigger.

With short twitches, the tight action is broken by rapid changes in direction and additional side flashes. Short stops can be used to slightly lift the lure, reduce speed, or guide it more precisely past structures.

The rattling construction provides extra presence in currents, colored water, or larger rivers where visual signals alone are not always enough. Combined with stable rolling and precise depth control, this makes the MD90 an effective model for targeted fishing in medium-deep zones.

Cherry Blood MD90 combines medium deep-diving depth, stable rolling action, long casts, and rattling attraction – a precise model for larger rivers and fish that hold in the mid-layer.

USE IN FIELD When and where it fits best

The Smith Cherry Blood MD90 is best suited for larger rivers, main currents, current edges, breaks, channels, and medium-deep pools where fish are deeper than a shallow minnow can reach, but not so deep that a deep runner is necessary.

Use it when you want to fish controllably through 1–1.5 meters of water. It works well when casting across the current, downstream drifting, and steady retrieves along current edges or over prominent breaks.

Retrieve it with a calm and stable retrieve when you want to maintain working depth. Add short twitches or small stops when you want to break the rhythm and trigger following fish. In stronger currents, you can let the water pressure activate the lure's action and control depth with rod angle and line contact.

The MD90 is a good choice when the standard Cherry Blood runs too shallow, but the Deep 90 is too deep. In very shallow water, low water levels, or over vegetation, you should choose a shallower model. When fish are in the mid-water column and you need precision, the Cherry Blood MD90 is the right tool.

Background and Development The Story Behind the Series

The Cherry Blood series is developed for precise fishing for larger salmonids in rivers, with an emphasis on casting distance, stability in current, and clear rolling action. The MD90 is the medium-deep model in the series, filling the gap between shallower Cherry Blood variants and the deeper Deep 90.

The model features an aerodynamic body and an internal balance designed to provide long and precise casts without the lure losing stability in the air. This is crucial in larger rivers, where casts often need to be placed accurately towards current edges, breaks, or specific holding spots.

In the water, the MD90 is all about controlled depth and consistent presentation. Its floating body allows the angler to control the working depth with retrieve, pauses, and line angle, while the rolling movement provides a clear visual effect throughout the drift.

The Cherry Blood MD90 is therefore not just a standard 90 mm minnow, but the series' precise medium-depth model for main currents, larger rivers, and fish actively holding in the 1–1.5 meter water column.

The Smith Cherry Blood MD90 is the medium-deep model in the Cherry Blood series – designed for larger rivers, mainstreams, and precise fishing in medium-deep water where stability, rolling action, and casting distance are most important.
