Description

The Wee shad is a scaled down version of the big belly shad. Coming in at only 5" with a weight of just over a 1/2 ounce this bait is perfect for everyone. I can't wait to show this to some smallmouth on the rivers around here. This lure is also ideal for the fisherman who isn't set up to throw those big glides and swimbaits but wants to see what they are like. This lure is light enough to throw on your everyday fishing rod. NOTE: Each bait is hand painted in the order they are received. I make every effort to ship the baits within 3 days of receiving the order, however during the busy season it can take up to 5 to 8 business days to ship the baits. In most cases they do ship within 3 days, I never want to make anyone wait but I do need to maintain quality so it can take time sometimes.

Field Notes

A scaled-down glide bait for covering water and targeting bass that want a smaller profile. It is especially suited to smallmouth on rivers and anglers who want to fish a glide without needing heavy swimbait tackle.

Pros

  • Compact 5-inch profile is easier to cast on standard bass gear
  • Good entry point for anglers new to glide baits
  • Hand-painted finish

Cons

  • Still a specialty bait that may require practice to work properly
  • Limited to a smaller profile compared with full-size glides
