About this piece
The Deps Sakamata Shad is a soft stick bait designed to produce a lively darting action that mimics a baitfish fleeing on the surface. Its unique keel system and smooth body form create an easy-to-use lure that triggers predatory strikes from bass.
Key features
- Body keels on both sides create a natural darting action when hooked.
- Smooth, low-drag body line allows wide inertia slides and high-speed darts.
- Forked tail moves realistically like a baitfish tail fin.
- Salt-impregnated material (5% for 8-inch) improves hook hold and reduces tearing.
- Recommended for use with #6/0 offset hooks.
Best for
- Bass fishing in open water or around cover.
- No-sinker, split-shot, or Carolina rig presentations.
- Triggering reaction strikes from active or pressured bass.
