Quick take
A jointed shallow-diving minnow that moves with realistic segmented action.
The Rapala Jointed Shallow Shad Rap 07 in Silver Shad is a 2-3/4 inch, 3/8 ounce lure that suspends when paused and runs between 3 and 5 feet deep. Its jointed body gives a wide, kicking swim, and a rattle inside the body adds sound to the action. Two number 4 black nickel hooks come fitted, which suits anglers working shallow bass water with a crankbait.
