Description

Flat Shad is our newest addition to our soft plastic lure range. It has been tasted since May 2022 with great results. Flat Shad was designed for very slow presentation and works best combined with live sonar technology when you have to present the lure very slow in front of fish mouth. During testing stage Flat Shad turned out to be great trolling lure too and caught many big fish using slow trolling method. Flat Shad is 27cm long and with only 167g does not require very heavy pike fishing setup.

Field Notes

Use for very slow presentations aimed at fish that are following but not committing. Best when you can control speed precisely (e.g., slow trolling) and when you need the lure to stay in front of the fish’s mouth for a long time.

Pros

  • Designed for very slow presentation
  • Works for both slow trolling and close-range presentation
  • Long profile with moderate weight for pike setups

Cons

  • Requires slow control to get the intended action
  • Not ideal if you need fast retrieval speeds
