ManufacturerDUO-
DUO Spearhead Ryuki 50S is a compact sinking minnow for trout fishing in fast-flowing rivers. Its 50 mm size is well suited to working small current pockets, areas behind rocks and shallow river sections with precision. In Lithuania, the model is also used successfully for asp, especially when they are feeding on small baitfish.
Key features. A flat-sided body, semi-long lip and low-centre fixed weight help the lure maintain a stable action in current. Ryuki 50S starts working quickly, responds precisely to short rod movements and keeps its action as retrieve speed increases. At 4.5 g, it also provides useful casting distance and accuracy for a lure of this size.
Action and application. On a steady retrieve, Ryuki 50S produces an active rolling action. Short twitches make it dart sharply, so a short section of river can be worked accurately with only a few rod movements. It can be worked upstream, across the current or downstream. The sinking body lets anglers select the working level through countdown time, current strength, retrieve speed and rod angle.
Why choose it:
• 50 mm, 4.5 g sinking minnow;
• developed primarily for trout and also effective for asp;
• maintains a stable action in current and at higher retrieve speeds;
• responds precisely to short twitches;
• well suited to small current pockets and areas behind rocks.
Specifications. Model – Spearhead Ryuki 50S; length – 50 mm; weight – 4.5 g; type – minnow; buoyancy – sinking (S); weight system – fixed, low centre of gravity; hooks – two #12 trebles; approximate working range – 0.4–0.8 m; actual depth depends on countdown, current and retrieve speed; manufacturer – DUO Co., Ltd.
Retrieve options. For trout, Ryuki 50S can be worked steadily with short twitches and pauses. After casting across the flow, guide it in an arc past rocks, current seams and calmer pockets. For asp, use a faster steady retrieve. When retrieving downstream, reel fast enough for the lip to keep gripping the water and the lure to maintain its action.
Other Ryuki models. The core Spearhead Ryuki sinking range includes the 45S (4 g), 50S (4.5 g), 60S (6.5 g), 70S (9 g), 80S (12 g), 95S (15 g) and 110S (21 g). The 45–60 mm sizes are selected mainly for trout, but they also catch asp. From midsummer into autumn, anglers often move from the 50S to the 60S, 70S or larger models as the baitfish grow. The 50S Takumi is also 50 mm long but weighs 4 g, so it is a separate version.
