Description

This bait has a purple back and white sides, with chartreuse/green on the belly and black accents on the head with a classic shad spot. The original one was pure chartreuse, then I switched it to hot green and I landed on a mix of the two and that one has been great!

Field Notes

This is a hard minnow-style jerkbait designed to be worked with pauses and twitches around baitfish. The shad profile and bright chartreuse/green accents make it a good choice when fish are feeding on shad or need extra visibility in stained water. It appears suited for casting and working over open water or along breaks.

Pros

  • Strong shad imitation
  • High-visibility color pattern
  • Effective on suspended fish

Cons

  • Hard jerkbaits can be less effective in heavy vegetation
  • May require a specific pause cadence to trigger strikes
