Description

Mint green over a clear blank with black on the head, red under the chin and the classic shad spot. To further enhance the "glacier" look, I added blue and pearl glitter to it. This bait looks stunning in person and it works great! You may recognize the name of this pattern from Captain Juls' Blog (OH). She has been doing very well with it. It is extremely natural looking, so it does well in clear water and lightly stained water.

Field Notes

This is a natural shad-pattern crankbait designed to imitate baitfish in clear to lightly stained water. It’s a good choice for covering water and targeting fish that are feeding on shad, especially with a steady retrieve or a stop-and-go cadence.

Pros

  • Very natural shad profile and color
  • Works well in clear water
  • Good baitfish imitation

Cons

  • May be less effective in very dirty water
  • Clear-bodied finish can be subtle when fish want a louder profile
