Description

This is crack for shad! A few of our guides won't even grab another fly during shad season. The Holographic Tinsel underneath the Hot Gold Stren glows in the water and attracts shad. They can't stay off of it. The fly also has lead wire under the Hot Orange Bead, which provides a dipping action much like you find on the standard shad darts.
