Quick take
This soft-plastic shad tail comes as a 12-pack in a Pearl Chartreuse tail color. Its paddle tail is made to swim on a jig head or a twist-lock hook, which suits anglers working shallow flats for inshore species like seatrout, reds and flounder. A spear-point style pack like this gives a first-timer plenty of spare baits to rig.

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.
