Nomad Live Ops Maniax Unrigged Lure 8 Inch

Big-profile paddletail body you can rig your way for maximum drawing power on trophy fish.

Built for anglers who demand control, the 8” Maniax Unrigged keeps the signature wide-body roll and heavy tail thump of the Maniax series while giving you complete freedom to match the conditions. Pair it with a heavy jighead for deep edges, rig weedless to crawl through timber, or add a stinger for short-striking barramundi and cod. A nose rigging slot, top hook alignment groove and recessed belly slot make straight, snag-resistant rigging simple.

An internal air chamber accepts scent and Live Ops Adjusta-Balls so you can tune sink rate and posture for rivers, impoundments and tidal estuaries. The Titan-RX TPE body withstands repeated hits from big predators while the lifelike baitfish profile and 3D eyes focus the strike when slow-rolling along rock bars, drains and weedlines.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size hooks suit the 8” body?
Use larger jigheads or heavy-gauge swimbait/weedless hooks appropriate for barramundi and cod. Add a belly or tail stinger when fish are swiping short.

How do I adjust the sink rate?
Insert Live Ops Adjusta-Balls (tungsten weights) into the internal chamber to increase sink rate while keeping a level posture.

What retrieves work best?
A slow to medium steady roll is deadly. Add pauses or brief surges when contacting structure to trigger reaction strikes.

Is it durable enough for big fish?
Yes. The Titan-RX TPE elastomer is designed to resist tearing and survive repeated hits from powerful predators.
