DT22

[DWB]

I see plenty photies of bass caught on DT22s.

Who makes them and what colour is best?

 

[Johanvc]

Don't you mean a DD22. They are made by bill norman and are great.

Norman Lures.

I would go for lavender shad in your area.
Have a look at MAN's fishing reports most of those are DD22 or DLN's.
He likes them in the hot colours too

Hallo Attie

wat se jy oor die DD22s?

 

[MAN]

Nou praat julle my taal manne!!!!!!Die groot geheim van die deep divers is om die regte plekke te teiken,waar hulle die vis uit die struktuur kan trek en aan jou lyn opeindig!

Ek gebruik amper net cranks,baie selde sal ek platicks gooi dis bietjie "vervelig" vir my,deep divers is bie baie effektief in enige situasie MAAK NIE SAAK WAAR OF WANNEER jy hulle gebruik nie!

Klipperige bodems,bome,underwater humps,punte,jetties,diep water,daar is n crank vir dit,die lavender shad kleur is van die beter kleure MAAR ek verkies n helder kleur omdat van die damme waar ek hengel nie silwer skoon water het nie.Norman lures is van die beste geballanseerde aas wat jy kan koop,eerstens is die gemiddelde prys van R55-00 teenoor Rapala DT22 se R130-00,die Norman se lyf is van plastick,met gelcoat oor wat hom basies pantser teen enige iets,rapala s'n se verf krap af as jy net jou viskas rond dra,die aksie van die norman great en die blinkers gee hom net daai ekstra aantrekking en ou boet geen kwaliteit in vir die geld wat jy betaal vir norman nie.Maar ek is seker n ou wat in rapala glo sal jou alles vertel wat sy aas beter kan doen.....so dit hang af wat jy van hou en wat jou behoeftes is!

DD22's a great lure... deep water divers, 17 - 22ft if i'm not mistaken. Lavender shad is a favourite colour. I have one in this. Made by Bill Norman and cost around R70 each.

Worth investing in a good lure retriever if you going to start fishing lures. Last thing you want is your hard earned cash stuck to a log on the bottom of the dam...

It will cost about R200 but if you save 3 to 4 lures, it's pays itself off...

So in other words its for when you fish DEEP!!!!!!!!!!

Attie, ek sit 2 DD22s opdie tafel neer as jy op my PM reply... hehehe

IMHO - The DD22 & DLN (deep little N) are the #1 lures ever made.

Some DD22's swim better than others, even when they look exactly the same, so you need to lable them for their individual characteristics. And I'm not talking about not swimming straight, that can be corrected as you all know. Some wobble more than others, some go deeper and some shallower. And remember to make a note in your log book which one you caught it on. Some of my DD22's I have no faith in and if they get snagged I will just put the pressure on and hope it pops off, if not toughies. And others, I will go to great lengths/depths to get back from a snag. (get a lure 'knocker' and a diving mask)

DT = Drive To = DT 7 = dives to 7ft
Made by Rapala and come in a DT Flat model as well. Not sure if they make a DT22, but the do make a DT16

 

[DWB]

Sorry meant DD22 made by Norman

 

[Monster]

Watter kleur is die beste vir gauteng en Mpumalanga

 

[Bigmouth]

Lavender

Lavender shad is a good allround colour.

For the "Slowveld" I like the hotter colours - Hot Yellows/greens etc.

I must confess I have a prefrence for the DLN's but this is because I seldom fish in 20ft of water.
