Quick take

A 1/4 oz jig with a holographic shad tail that works for bottom jigging or spinnerbait-style presentations near cover.

A small 1/8 oz Mimic Minnow Shad in Bubblegum Tiger, about 2-1/8 inches long. The light weight fits finesse presentations for crappie, panfish, bass, walleye, pike and trout.

Best for

  • Jigging over structure for panfish and crappie
  • Trolling around timber and brush
  • Anglers who want one jig that works multiple ways

Skip if

  • You need a jig heavier than 3/8 oz
  • You fish open water only

Strengths

  • Holographic tail flashes and attracts fish in low light
  • Stand-up jighead design keeps the tail above bottom
  • Works for bottom jigging or trolling spinnerbait-style

Trade-offs

  • Soft tail gets damaged by rocks and wood
  • Multiple color options mean you need several to match conditions
  • Light weight makes casting difficult in wind

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.
