Strike KingRed Eyed Shad Lipless Crankbait, 1 Pack

There are so many different colors of this exact lure, but I recently received this one in the “Phantom Watermelon Red Craw” color and pattern. The color is amazing and is similar to the color pattern I would use with a plastic worm, but what I didn’t realize until I received it is that it is actually see through when you hold it up to the light. In bright light, you can see the rattles and chambers inside separating the rattles, which makes this even better than I had expected. Light can reflect and shine through even better. The rattles have a very distinct sound, and are different than other lipless crank baits that I own. I have many different brands of crank baits, but I am always drawn back to this Strike King Red Eye Shad.

I love the natural bream color of this rattle trap because it's so realistic and has caught me a few nice large mouth bass already and even a turtle tried getting it. I'm eager to try it in saltwater at the Skyway pier because I think they resemble greenbacks pretty good too so I think I could probably catch some mackerel, snapper and grouper on them instead of having to cast net live bait, especially if I put a little menhaden fish oil on it for scent. All in all I love this rattle trap and bought the 3/4oz version for saltwater fishing that I hope to do again soon.

I have caught more bass with this lure than any other this summer. The size of the bass has been larger too. I ended up buying one more for my son and an extra for me.

I've been seeing many youtubers use the Red Eye Shad lipless crankbait, particularly RealisticFishing. I've been dying to try this lure, but it's always sold out when I try to find it in stores! Got the lure on time and got to fish with it today. 3rd cast and I caught a decent 2 1/2-3lb largemouth bass! Had several strikes after that, so it definitely gets em fired up.

Well it's pretty, and it looks exactly the same as pictured (although it has more shimmery features that cannot really be captured by a camera but are good for catching reflections from the sun in the water). As for how it does in the water, I can't say if it's a surefire way to catch freshwater fish. I have had mixed success, and really it just depends on the bodies of water where I'm going more-so than the lure. In the meantime, it's cool looking, but you will be kind of using twice the bait as opposed to using a regular hook. Just something to keep in mind.

This is one of the few hard baits I but a lot of. tight wobble, good vibrations, long castability, and many colors. Buy more at once (you'll need them when you lose them) and they will package them together so you save on shipping.

these strike king shads catch the fish. i bought this to replace my last one that was only a month old. i'm in a dirty lake and the chrome/blue is my go to for largemouth and stripers. i always have 1 of these on 1 of my poles. i would give this a 5 start rating for effectiveness but bumped it down to 3 stars because the paint just doesn't hold up. 3 weekends of fishing my last shad, there is virtually no paint left on it. just patches of chrome and blue at the tail end. A+ for effectiveness but a C- for durability. i don't have this issue w/ my rapala or bill lewis rattlers, but i still prefer strike king when i can afford it.

Picture does not match product, but still fine

all ok

Me gusto mucho el primer día que lo use me resulto efectivo tuve una captura pequeña pude comprobar su efectividad 💯%
