Description

*Resin baits are handmade and painted to order. Colors may vary. Lead time is approx 4-6 weeks. The Flee Shad is a lipless, swimming shad bait. This is NOT your normal swimmer, the swim on the Flee is very subtle and tight. Mimicking a baitfish, the head of this baits stays very still while swimming and the segmented body has a tight wiggle. This bait excels at fast speeds, burning it without blowing out and twitching it to become darty & erratic. Fishing along pressure points ie. bridges, heavy mats, docks, will give you the best results. This bait truly replicates a "fleeing shad. You can adjust the sink rate by upsizing your hooks as well. Creep it, burn it, or twitch it, either way you're going to get bit! All handmade and handpainted!
