About this piece
The Whiplash Factory Spittin Wire is a shad pencil designed to disturb the water surface with action, sound, and splash. Its slightly thicker shad-style body generates a strong water push with an undulating action, unlike the sharper movement of the Live Wire. The lure offers versatile action beyond a pure popper, including short slides with side-to-side flash, moderate sound, and mixed rattle tones.
Key features
- 95mm length and approximately 15.5g weight (with hooks and split rings)

Best for
