About this piece
The Deps Frilled Shad is a soft plastic swimbait designed to mimic baitfish like smelt and minnows. Its unique fan-shaped lip on the head creates a realistic shivering and rolling action on a straight retrieve, making it effective for pressured waters. The low-specific-gravity material ensures excellent hook hold and a natural feel.
Key features

- Realistic molded body with separate 3D eyes for lifelike appearance.
- Low-specific-gravity soft material for slow fall and easy hook penetration.
- Lip acts as a brake for hovering presentations and hides hook point as a guard.
