Field Notes

This is a soft plastic shad-style bait designed to be fished on a ball head or swimbait jig, especially when using forward-facing sonar.

  • Flexible tail gives subtle vertical movement
  • Works well with forward-facing sonar

Cons

  • Requires the right jighead or rig to fish effectively
