First Cast Fishing
  • Keitech Easy Shiner Swimbait, 4 in, Clear Lake Hitch

Quick take

A 4-inch soft swimbait with an unsymmetrical body and outstanding tail action, designed for Texas rigs, Carolina rigs and Alabama rigs.

The Clear Lake Hitch finish gives this Keitech Easy Shiner a clear-toned look in the water. Anglers who want a swimbait in a clear finish rather than a solid shad tone can add it to their tackle box.

Best for

  • Covering water quickly on a jig head
  • Texas and Carolina rig presentations in cover
  • Bass fishing where versatility matters

Skip if

  • You fish very deep water where you need tight line contact
  • You prefer stiffer baits that maintain shape under pressure

Strengths

  • Wide-wobbling rolling action drives predatory fish aggressive strikes
  • Works well on Texas, Carolina and Alabama rigs
  • Fantastic tail action imitates baitfish movement

Trade-offs

  • Soft plastic body can tear on rocks and cover
  • Swing tail action works best on a moving retrieve
  • Color selection is limited in the examples shown

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.
