About this piece
The Deps Frilled Shad is a soft plastic swimbait that realistically imitates streamlined baitfish like smelt and chub. Its unique fan-shaped lip on the head creates a trembling, rolling action that mimics a live baitfish, making it effective in pressured or clear water conditions.
Key features
- Fan-shaped lip on the head generates a natural trembling and rolling action.
- Ultra-realistic body with molded details and separate real-eye inserts.
- Low-specific-gravity soft material for easy hook penetration and durability.
- Zero salt content in both back and belly for enhanced buoyancy and reflection.
- The lip acts as a simple hook guard, protecting the point.
- Ideal for slow presentations like hoverstrolling due to lip's braking effect.
Best for
- Bass fishing in clear or pressured waters.
- Slow to moderate retrieve presentations like light mid-strolling and slow rolling.
- Fishing around structure like rocks and pilings where bass hold.
