Deep Concave Pusher – Mesmerising Action – Highly Versatile – 3 Sizes
The TIAMAT Vortex is a straight-faced, deep-concave pusher that delivers a mesmerising display of water displacement, bubble trails and spectacular surface action throughout the trolling spread.
Inspired by one of the most successful and enduring head designs in big game fishing, the Vortex takes this time-proven concept to another level through precision engineering and meticulous refinement.
Its distinctive operating cycle produces an enormous, elongated bubble trail, followed by a powerful eruption through the surface before diving again to repeat the sequence. The resulting combination of underwater turbulence, surface commotion and visual attraction makes the Vortex an exceptionally effective fish-raising lure.
Equally at home in calm or challenging sea conditions, the Vortex is one of the most versatile and productive designs in the entire TIAMAT range.
Like every lure in the TIAMAT range, the Vortex is meticulously handcrafted using advanced materials and technology derived from the aviation industry, complemented by some of the finest paua shell sourced from around the globe.
The result is a beautifully finished, crystal-clear lure that showcases exceptional attention to detail and the very finest in lure-making craftsmanship.
The Vortex is available in three sizes and several distinctive head designs, as shown below.
Choose from over 50 TIAMAT Pelagic Skirt colour combinations, all featuring exclusive UV-NexGen technology.
Every TIAMAT Lure also incorporates a crimp lock, allowing anglers to fine-tune the lure for optimum trolling performance.
Its remarkable ability to perform across such a wide range of trolling positions and sea conditions sets it apart from many conventional lure designs.
If you were to choose just one trolling lure design for your entire spread, the TIAMAT Vortex would be an exceptionally compelling choice.
Long Corner? Long Rigger? Short Corner? Even Shotgun? Absolutely!
The Vortex is an exceptionally versatile trolling lure, capable of delivering outstanding performance across virtually every position in the trolling spread.
We recommend initially positioning the Vortex on the Long Corner or Long Rigger, where its impressive bubble trail and powerful surface cycle can be displayed to full effect.
However, don’t overlook the Short Corner, where the Vortex can be equally productive. Remarkably, it can also perform exceptionally well in the Shotgun position, a placement not always associated with straight-faced concave pushers.
Naturally, sea conditions and individual boat configurations will influence its swimming characteristics, so experiment with lure placement and drop-back distance to achieve optimum performance.
