22nd Century Swimbait Company

Field Notes

This is a 5-inch hard swimbait in a shad pattern, suited for covering water and targeting bass around open-water baitfish. Work it with a steady retrieve, pauses, or gentle twitches to imitate a wounded shad and trigger reaction strikes.

Pros

  • Realistic shad profile and segmented body for natural swimming action
  • Good size for bass feeding on baitfish
  • Versatile for steady retrieve or pause-and-go presentations

Cons

  • Higher price point
  • May be less effective in very heavy vegetation than more compact baits
