Duo Rough Trail Blazin 110 – 11.5cm 64g

Duo Rough Trail Blazin 110 – 11.5cm | 64g: The Deep-Water Heavyweight

The Duo Rough Trail Blazin 110 is the pinnacle of the Blazin series, achieving a “perfect balance of weight and action.” At Gerry’s Fishing, we consider this lure a “beast” in the heavy-sinking minnow category. By packing a massive 64g into an 11.5cm body, Duo has created a lure that “can be fished deeply and cast far” while “preserving the action” that makes the Rough Trail family so deadly.

This model is “pure muscle,” specifically “concepted with the focus on optimum setting of weight” to target predators in the deepest parts of the water column or in the most extreme offshore conditions.

Engineering & Ballistic Precision

• Advanced Hydrodynamics: The “trademark bevel cut lip” and “flip design tail” are critical engineering features. Despite the 64g weight, these elements “create lift,” allowing the lure to “initiate the action smoothly” the moment you begin your retrieve.

• High-Speed Balance: The Blazin 110 is designed for “maintaining its balance at high speed retrieval.” It is an “absolute reference” for “burning” lures through the water to trigger strikes from Tuna, GT, and large Pelagics without the lure tumbling or blowing out.

• Deep-Water Exploration: As one of the “heavier models added to the series,” the 110 allows anglers to “utilize the model for even deeper fishing.” It sinks rapidly and stays deep, reaching the “strike zone” in fast-moving tidal races or deep oceanic drop-offs.

• Rugged Construction: Built to withstand the “brutal power” of apex predators, the Blazin 110 features a reinforced body and heavy-duty hardware that “withstands the power of very large predators.“

Technical Specifications

Tactical Applications & Strategy

The Blazin 110 is a “technical powerhouse” for extreme scenarios. The Gerry’s team suggests:

• The “Vertical Minnow” Technique: Because it is so heavy, you can fish the 110 almost like a jig. Drop it into deep estuary channels or over offshore pinnacles and use a “lift and drop” retrieve to target Bass or Cod holding near the bottom.

• Offshore Surface Boils: When pelagics are feeding at a distance, the 64g weight provides “unrivaled casting distance.” You can stay far back from the school to avoid spooking them while still putting the lure right in the middle of the “frenzy.“

• Taming the Current: In “strong currents” or heavy surf, the 110 “digs in” where other lures would be swept away. Its “perfect balance” ensures it tracks straight and true even in the most turbulent “white water.”

• Matching Large Prey: The 11.5cm profile is an “ideal mimic” for large sandeels, herrings, or small mackerel—the “formidable” high-protein meals that large predators seek out.

Gerry’s Verdict:

The Duo Rough Trail Blazin 110 (11.5cm/64g) is a “top-tier” Japanese sinking minnow that offers “outstanding performance” in the most challenging environments. It solves the problem of reaching “deep water” with a minnow-style action. If you are looking for a lure that “casts like a bullet” and “fishes like a dream” in the deep, the Blazin 110 is a high-value addition to your kit
