About this piece
Deps Sakamata Shad is a soft stick bait engineered to produce an explosive darting action that mimics a fleeing baitfish. Its unique keel on both sides of the body generates a rising, skipping motion on the draw, triggering reaction strikes from bass. Available in an 8-inch size with 5% salt content for improved casting and hook penetration.
