Product Description
The Pork Shad is a jerk bait replicating a shad or a shiner-a favorite forage fish for hungry Bass. Jerk baits, like the Pork Shad, have been around a long time. They fell out of favor with anglers when baits like the French Fry and the Chopstik came out, but now jerk baits are gaining in popularity again, especially when anglers find out that the Pork Shad is a very effective bait when fishing a bedding fish during the spring. It can be easily fished through grass. The natural blending of color between the top and bottom of the bait better resembles forage fish, and the beaded ribs running along the top (back) of the bait provide bubbling action like air released from the gills of a small fish as it is worked through the water. The erratic topwater action mimics a dying bait fish, making it vulnerable to a feeding fish-an effective bait in any water where small schooling forage fish exist. Whether you are fishing for Smallmouth Bass, Largemouth Bass, Pike, Walleye, Speckled Trout, or Redfish, the Pork Shad is known to catch numerous species of fish in both freshwater and saltwater.
