About this piece
The Whiplash Spittin' Wire is a shad pencil lure designed to disturb the water surface with action, sound, and splash. Its slightly thick shad-style body incorporates a sound-generating mechanism, offering diverse action unlike a pure popper. The lure slides short distances with side-to-side fluttering, producing a moderate sound and spitting spray with each movement, along with a mixed rattle sound.
