Quick take
A pack of eight 3-inch soft minnows in Black Shad with PowerBait scent and split-tail action for finesse presentations.
This 3-inch Black Shad soft minnow comes as a pack of 8, pre-rigged with a split tail, 3D eyes and holographic inserts. The scented PowerBait material suits slow, finesse presentations, and it works as a jig or spinner trailer. Anglers going after bass, walleye, trout and panfish will find a natural baitfish profile in a color that matches shad.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
