Description

Samson Shad — Long Casting Sub Surface Sinking Lure The Samson Shad is a highly versatile and effective sub surface sinking lure designed to mimic the erratic movement of a fleeing or injured baitfish — an irresistible target for predatory species. Action & Retrieval Techniques: Walk the Dog: A slow to medium retrieve with light rod tip taps creates an unpredictable side-to-side motion just below the surface. Fleeing Baitfish: Stronger rod pulls followed by short pauses send the Shad darting through open water — a proven trigger for aggressive strikes. Vibrating Action: Rip the lure through the water for a distinct vibrating pulse, sending distress signals fish can’t ignore. Depth Control: Work the rod tip down for sub surface action, or allow the lure to sink with a longer pause for deeper water columns. Shallow Waters: Keep the rod tip high and retrieve quickly to avoid snags in rocky shallows, making a splash to draw in nearby predators. Built for Performance: Heavy-duty treble hooks for solid hook sets Wired-through design using high-strength materials for maximum durability Premium rigging and fittings for reliable performance Weighted for long-distance casting — perfect for punching through strong onshore winds Virtually indestructible — ideal for fishing sharp rocks and battling toothy pelagics Handmade lathe-turned design ensuring precision casting every time Target Species: The Samson Shad is a go-to lure for a wide range of saltwater predators, including: Bass, GTs, Bluefish, Tuna, Sea Trout, Snapper, Roosterfish, Jacks, Mackerel, Kingfish, Queenfish, Leerfish, and other fast-moving pelagics. Pro Tip: This sinking lure is just as effective when retrieved from deeper waters, making it a versatile weapon in any angler's tackle box. ⚠️ Note: All lure weights are listed without hooks and rings.

Field Notes

Use a slow-to-medium retrieve with light rod-tip taps to make the Shad walk the dog just below the surface. For fleeing-baitfish action, use stronger pulls followed by short pauses, and rip it to trigger a vibrating pulse. Let it sink during longer pauses to reach deeper sub-surface water columns, especially in open water.

Cons

  • Treble hooks can snag in rocky shallows if worked too slowly or with the rod tip too low
