Here’s a couple smoky Shad 3.5” Puds with detachable “Dozer Blade” wire forms, pre-rigged on my modified, weighted VMC Special Bend 6/0, 5/16oz, Swimbait hooks. For those unfamiliar, a “dozer blade” is basically the single or double blade wire form of an inline connected to a Swimbait instead of a bucktail. In the muskie world the swimbaits are huge as are the Dozer Blades and wire forms. A slightly downsized version (size 6 Indiana Blades) is perfect for bass, stripers, and wipers. Each wire form is connected via split ring, easily disconnected if you want to fish the Pud with just the weighted hook.
