Description

This is the "from prototype" to "Version 1.0" to "ready for the store" Saxxy Shad squarebill that has become the cornerstone for all our new future designs of this particular color-way. It's similar to the ever popular "Sexy Shad" pattern that has saturated itself within the lure industry and Clique Bait's took the approach to refine it a bit and re-create our version of the legendary bait so that it is unique unto our lineup of baits and just as effective, if not MORE.

Field Notes

A squarebill crankbait is best around shallow cover where deflection matters, such as wood, rock, and dock edges. It is a good choice for covering water quickly and triggering reaction strikes, especially when bass are feeding on shad. The Sexy Shad-style color is a strong option in clearer water or when fish are keyed on baitfish.

Pros

  • Squarebill profile is excellent for shallow cover deflection
  • Baitfish pattern matches shad forage well
  • Good reaction-bite lure for covering water

Cons

  • Not ideal for very deep water
  • Can get hung in heavy vegetation or dense brush
