Nomad Live Ops Double Down Jerkshad

Take your offshore fishing to the next level with the Nomad Live Ops Double Down Jerkshad – a high-performance soft plastic jerkbait designed for deepwater brutes like pink snapper, WA dhufish, and sampsonfish. Built tough for the rugged waters off Southwest Western Australia, this lure is a deadly choice when you're dropping on reefs, ledges, and offshore structure from your boat.

The Double Down internal weighting system gives the Jerkshad a faster sink rate and increased casting distance – perfect for getting down quickly to where the fish are holding in deeper water or strong current. Combined with Nomad’s Live Ops® lifelike swimming action, the result is an erratic, baitfish-style dart and flutter that triggers aggressive strikes from even the most cautious predators.

Key Features:

• Deadly on WA pink snapper, dhufish, samsonfish, and other offshore reef species

• Double Down weighted body sinks fast and stays in the strike zone longer

• Ideal for vertical jigging, slow-pitch, or cast-and-hop presentations from a boat

• Constructed from super-durable soft plastic that holds up against toothy and hard-fighting fish

• Realistic profile and action imitates wounded baitfish under pressure

• Pairs perfectly with heavy jigheads, weighted swimbait hooks, or assist rigs for deep drops

Whether you're fishing the reefs off Cape Naturaliste, exploring the depths near Albany, or working structure off Esperance, the Nomad Live Ops Double Down Jerkshad is built to tempt the trophy fish Southwest WA is known for.

• Strike-Triggering Tail
  Engineered with a split-wing tail, bulbed legs, and a top disruptor fin, the Double Down generates chaotic turbulence and high-frequency tail movement even at rest. On the lift, the lure delivers wide lateral glides; on the pause, it flutters and pulses unpredictably.

• Multi-Mode Rigging Performance
  Recessed belly and back hook slots enable quick rigging with jigheads or weedless EWG hooks. Perfect for a range of techniques including twitch retrieves, long-burns, or deadstick drops across both shallow and deep zones.

• Tackle & Gear Recommendations
  Match 3”–4” sizes with light spin outfits (6–12 lb braid, 8–15 lb leader). Larger 5”–7” models excel on 20–50 lb braid and 30–60 lb fluorocarbon with jigheads from 1/4 to 2 oz depending on water depth and current.

• Maximized Visibility & Durability
  Built from Titan-RX™ TPE elastomer for exceptional tear resistance and rebound memory. Combined with Reactor UV + Glow for visual strike triggers in low light and infused with Tracer Scent to close the deal when fish track but hesitate.
