About this piece
The Deps Sakamata Shad is a soft plastic stick bait designed to mimic a fleeing baitfish with a unique darting action. Its keel system causes the lure to jump upward when retrieved, triggering reaction strikes from bass. Available in an 8-inch size, this lure comes in a pack of four.
Key features
- Keel on both sides creates a natural darting action that mimics a baitfish jumping out of the water.
- Streamlined body reduces water resistance for easy darting and wide glide.
- High salt content (5% for 8-inch) improves hook penetration and durability.
- Forked tail flutters realistically to imitate a baitfish's tail fin.
- Works with no-sinker, split-shot, or Carolina rigs for versatile presentations.
Best for
- Bass fishing in open water or around cover.
- Triggering reaction strikes from pressured fish.
- Fishing at various depths from surface to bottom.
