Description

Developed in collaboration with Wally Marshall, Mr. Crappie, Strike King®'s Mr. Crappie® Lightning Shad is a soft plastic bait that displays a baitfish profile with a unique tapered tail that causes the bait to quiver and move, garnering the undivided attention of any hungry crappie in the vicinity. Big enough to be highly visible, yet realistic enough to coax even finicky fish into biting, the Lightning Shad should prove a welcome addition to any crappie anglers tackle box.

Field Notes

Use the Lightning Shad on a light jig head or as a soft-plastic trailer for crappie when fish are actively feeding or when you need to trigger bites with subtle vibration. Cast to likely cover (brush, docks, or structure) and retrieve slowly, letting the tapered tail quiver to draw strikes.

Pros

  • Tapered tail designed to quiver and create vibration
  • Baitfish profile helps it look natural to finicky crappie
  • Big enough to be visible while still realistic

Cons

  • Best results depend on using a presentation that lets the tail action show
