Damiki introduced a lot of new product at ICAST in 2010 and they are building on their strong base with several new introductions. We talked with Bryan Thrift and the following is what he had to say about each of the new baits for 2012:
The Hydra Evolution is a new twin tail that is built off Hydra skirt. It's a new spider grub that has tentacles that stand up. The nice thing about this bait is you can take one tentacle and put it over the hook on a jighead and make the bait weedless. Thrift will fish this lure in prespawn conditions on rocky lakes like Table Rock.
The new 3-inch and 4-inch Air Craws feature air pockets in the claws of the craw bait that makes the claws stand up in the defense posture. You can also put a rattle in the claw pockets. Thrift will fish the 4-inch bait for a lot of flipping, bed fishing and texas rigging applications. He took the 3-inch up to Michigan recently and caught a bunch of smallmouth on it.
The new D-Hold Hook eliminates the problem with screw lock weighted hooks where an angler struggles to rig the bait straight. With the D-Hold hook, the keeper threads on like a texas rig and then back into the bait and there are two holding points to keep it rigged perfectly straight and locked on the hook. He fishes it with swimbaits, weightless stickbaits, swimming worms over grass, soft jerkbaits and even topwater toads. The hooks are available in weightless, 1/8 and 1/6 ounce sizes and 5/0 and 3/0 hooks.
The new D-Pop 70 is a smooth looking new topwater popper with a long tail feather and narrow profile. It comes in 6 awesome looking colors.
The DC400 is a new wide-wobbling deep diver. It is said to dive 15-18 feet but he thought it would run true at 12-16 feet. He likes this deep diver around grass because it has a good hard thump you can feel and when it hits the grass you can stop and it will back out of it because their DC crankbaits are so buoyant.
