Nomad Design Ridgeback 60 LC – 60g Metal Casting Lure with Long Cast Action & BKK Hooks

Overview

Meet the Nomad Design Ridgeback 60 LC, a purpose-built 60g (2 oz) metal casting lure that blends a distinctive RIDGEBACK LONG CAST silhouette with an angled head. This configuration yields an erratic sideways dart on each wind of the reel, helping you cover water quickly and locate feeding fish. Ready to fish straight out of the box, it comes fitted with Ultimate BKK Hooks for confident hook sets from shore or boat.

Crafted for durability and performance, the Ridgeback 60 LC is built to stand up to rugged days on the water. The through-wire system wraps the internal wire around plastic supports and is welded at both ends, reducing the chance of separation during big-fish battles. A triple-coat resin finish adds color depth and resilience, helping the lure look vibrant longer in sunlight, salt, and spray.

Design and Action

The unique angled head design creates a distinct erratic movement that mimics a fleeing baitfish when you retrieve. The weighted belly enhances distance casting from shore or on a boat, letting you reach the strike zone quickly while maintaining control and strike perception. This action is crafted to entice a variety of predatory species by delivering a believable swim pattern with every reel turn.

Durability and Build Quality

Nomad Design emphasizes toughness through engineering and finish. The Through Wire construction minimizes movement between the body and the wire, while the welded ends secure the line of resistance. The Triple Shield protection coats the lure with three layers of clear resin, increasing color depth and helping the finish endure repeated casts and exposure to water and sun.

In-The-Water Performance

Designed in Australia and tested in real-water conditions, Ridgeback 60 LC aims to balance cast distance with a convincing lure action. The combination of high-quality BKK hardware and precise craftsmanship provides reliable hooks and dependable hardware for tough fights. While results can vary with conditions, this lure is constructed to offer a strong, repeatable performance profile that many anglers appreciate on day-long sessions.

Who It’s For

Anglers seeking longer casts, quick water coverage, and a ready-to-fish package may find the Ridgeback 60 LC appealing. Its robust build and proven components are suited for both shore-based and boat-based scenarios, making it a versatile option for seasonally active waters.
