Samaki Pacemaker 140DD Lure – Deep Diving High-Speed Trolling Minnow

The Samaki Pacemaker 140DD Lure is engineered for offshore anglers who demand stability, strength, and strike-provoking action at depth. With a fine-tuned hydrodynamic design, this lure runs true across a trolling range of 3 to 12 knots, giving you flexibility in varied conditions. At its ideal speed of 6 knots, it produces a lifelike swimming action that mimics fleeing baitfish and triggers hard strikes from pelagic predators.

The Pacemaker 140DD dives deep — reaching 4 to 6 metres — making it perfect for targeting fish holding further down in the water column. Built tough for bluewater battles, it features a one-piece stainless steel welded wire frame, heavy-duty split rings, and VMC 3X Perma Steel treble hooks, giving you confidence against tuna, mackerel, wahoo, and kingfish.

For added realism, the lure incorporates a realistic fish-eye, prism tape insert, and Samaki’s exclusive colour finishes such as slimey mackerel, yellowfin tuna, and mullet. Durable, reliable, and versatile, the Samaki Pacemaker 140DD is a must-have trolling lure for serious offshore anglers.
