The Savage Gear Monster Shad is a soft lure with a tapered profile, developed to target big predators such as pike, catfish and musky. Its paddle tail generates a powerful double-beat swimming action, accompanied by a slight S-shaped ripple that faithfully imitates wounded prey. The inside of the lure is painted for a more realistic, long-lasting finish, while the air-filled rear of the body gives it a natural buoyancy ideal for slow animation in shallow areas. Incorporating glass beads, the Monster Shad emits sonic vibrations which improve its detection on echo sounders and trigger violent attacks. UV active, it remains visible in tinted water or low light conditions. Can be used as a shallow lure or with a sinker head + treble hook for deep fishing. A real big-fish magnet for tough sessions.
