Kort om modellen

The Smith D-Contact 85 SW is the saltwater version of the D-Contact 85 – designed for sea fishing where casting distance, fast sinking, and stable action are more important than a light and discreet presentation.

With an 85 mm body and a weight of 14.5 g, you get a compact, heavy, and silent wobbler that is well-suited for when fish are hunting small fish in the transition between currents, waves, and rocky coastlines. Its extra-sinking construction ensures that the lure quickly reaches the working depth and maintains better contact under challenging conditions.

The D-Contact 85 SW is particularly well-suited for active shore fishing for sea bass, sea trout, and pelagic predatory fish, but can also be used for slow trolling when you want to present a small, tight-swimming baitfish with clear flash and a controlled swimming path.

GANGE OG RESPONS Slik jobber den i vannet

The D-Contact 85 SW is designed to maintain contact in rough seas, current edges, and along rocky coastlines where lighter wobblers can quickly lose their working depth. Its compact body and high specific gravity allow for long casts and quick action after impact.

When retrieved steadily, it performs with a tight and stable minnow action. When you incorporate twitches or short jerks, it breaks the rhythm with rapid sideways movements and flashes from its body. This creates a clear hunting or escape response, which is ideal when predatory fish are pressing baitfish against the shore, reefs, or current edges.

Its silent construction makes for a cleaner presentation. Instead of a rattling sound, the D-Contact 85 SW builds its attraction on silhouette, reflection, changes in speed, and controlled movement. This is particularly useful in clear water, with pressured fish, or when fish are following without striking directly.

The D-Contact 85 SW combines long casting, fast sinking, silent presentation, and active twitch/jerk response for saltwater fishing where fish are chasing small baitfish.

BRUK I FELT Når og hvor den passer best

The D-Contact 85 SW is best suited for rocky coasts, headlands, current edges, harbors, skerries, drop-offs, and areas where small fish are pushed towards land. It is especially relevant when you see fish chasing on the surface, but need a lure that goes a little deeper and maintains better contact than a light, shallower wobbler.

From shore, you can fish it with a steady retrieve combined with short twitches and small stops. Let the wobbler sink briefly before you start, and adjust the working depth with rod angle, retrieve speed, and the pauses between twitches.

For slow trolling, it works best when you want to cover edge zones, rocky bottoms, and coastal areas with a compact, quiet, and stable minnow. It is particularly well-suited when fish are feeding on small fish and you need a presentation that can withstand waves, currents, and varying speeds.

In very shallow water or over dense seaweed, it can sink too quickly. In such cases, it should be fished with a higher rod position, shorter sinking time, and more active control. When you need range, depth, and stability in the sea, the D-Contact 85 SW is a very strong choice.

Bakgrunn og utvikling Historien bak serien

The D-Contact 85 SW builds on the D-Contact concept: a compact, heavy, sinking minnow that can be fished actively with retrieve, twitch, and jerk. The difference lies in its application. The SW version is designed for saltwater fishing and comes in saltwater colors developed for coastal predators.

This model was adopted for saltwater fishing precisely because the D-Contact construction offers three important qualities for coastal use: good casting distance, quick contact after casting, and stable action in water that is rarely completely calm.

While typical river use largely involves currents, pools, and holding spots, the SW version is more about efficiently covering water along coasts, skerries, and rocks. It can be fished both actively from shore and more controlled during slow trolling.

The result is a versatile saltwater model for situations where you need a small but heavy lure that can be cast far, fished precisely, and presented without extra rattling sounds.

The D-Contact 85 SW is the coastal version of the D-Contact 85 – designed for sea fishing, chasing fish, rocky coasts, and situations where a compact, silent, and fast-sinking minnow provides the best control.
