NAYS DRV 48 soft plastic lure

A shad with powerful vibrations for predatory fish

The Nays DRV 48 is a shad-style soft plastic lure specially developed to maximize side-to-side movement and deliver a particularly enticing swimming action. Its design promotes pronounced body roll and side flashes that mimic a swimming baitfish.

Thanks to the large amount of water it displaces and its strong vibrations, this lure is an excellent choice for targeting pike, zander and large perch, especially when predatory fish are less active.

Lively swimming action even at low speeds

A key strength of the Nays DRV 48 is its ability to maintain an especially effective swimming action on slow retrieves.

Its paddle tail produces steady vibrations while its body creates a pronounced side-to-side rocking motion. Together, they give the lure a strong presence in the water that can attract predatory fish even in low visibility.

This action also lets you slow the retrieve considerably while maintaining an enticing presentation, making it especially useful for triggering strikes from wary fish.

A shape designed to maximize body roll

In the Nays range, the DRV falls between the PRDTR and VNM models in terms of swimming action.

It has a relatively slender shape and a slightly raised back. This distinctive geometry promotes wide, consistent body roll while maintaining good stability through different retrieves.

Its balanced profile produces a natural, lively swimming action suited to many fishing situations.

Versatile for a range of techniques

The Nays DRV 48 is particularly effective on a slow, straight retrieve when rigged on a suitable jig head. Its pronounced action lets you work shorelines, drop-offs and areas frequented by predatory fish.

It also works well with lift-and-fall retrieves and when fished near the bottom, where its vibrations and body roll help trigger strikes.

Its ability to displace a large volume of water makes it particularly useful for targeting predatory fish looking for larger prey.
