Quick take
A suspending jerkbait with 3D prism flash and ribbed belly vibration that attracts bass and walleye from a distance.
The Yo-Zuri 3DB Shad in Prism Sexy Shad is a 2 3/4-inch suspending shad imitation that runs about four to six feet deep, which suits bass anglers working shallow structure. Its suspending buoyancy lets it hold its depth between pauses, whether it is cast and retrieved, twitched or trolled.
Best for
- Bass in clear or slightly stained water
- Walleye in lakes and rivers
- Anglers fishing near cover with a steady retrieve
Skip if
- You need a diving jerkbait for deep structure
- You fish murky water where flash is less visible
Strengths
- 3D prism flash mimics injured baitfish
- Ribbed belly creates detectable wave vibrations
- Suspends to keep lure in the strike zone on pause
Trade-offs
- Requires skill to fish effectively; mindless retrieves lose the action
- Internals can break from high-speed hard jerks
- Treble hooks snag readily in grass and wood
