Nomad Design MADMACS 8" – High-Speed Sinking Trolling Minnow
The Nomad Design MADMACS 8” is a high-performance sinking trolling minnow engineered for serious anglers seeking versatility, speed, and durability. Capable of being trolled at speeds up to 20 knots, the MADMACS performs exceptionally at 6–12 knots, delivering lifelike action and impressive vibration that triggers strikes from tuna, mackerel, mahi-mahi, kingfish, and other pelagic predators. For slower trolling, it can run as low as 5 knots, thanks to the Patented Autotune™ System, which ensures the lure always trolls straight, runs true, and maintains an amazing action across a wide range of trolling speeds.
The MADMACS runs at 8–10 ft depth at slower speeds and 3–4 ft depth at high-speed trolling, making it ideal for targeting fish at multiple depths in offshore and inshore waters. The Pat. Pending body design combines a machine-stamped stainless steel plate with a full foam core, resulting in a super-tough, high-strength lure built to withstand aggressive strikes and heavy tackle conditions. Equipped with super strong BKK hooks and heavy-duty split rings, the MADMACS is ready for serious battle.
Designed and rigorously tested in Australia by the Nomad Design Team, leveraging decades of charter fishing experience, each MADMACS is precision-balanced to work perfectly with the selected hooks, giving anglers a high-speed, high-performance trolling lure capable of attracting pelagic gamefish, offshore predators, and big saltwater species.
