WTF!! A Big Bait Side Dish : BaitSmith's 5" Shad

Image

Introduction: Pick any technique within bass fishing, go through the sub-techniques within the larger and you soon realize each realm within itself is made up of several categories. One constant subcategory within just about every technique you can think of is the practice of slowing down and downsizing. in other words, finesse. The world of big baits is no stranger to this sub-category either with a plethora of smaller sized baits designed to entice the big bite. A common theme when looking for finesse style big baits to throw? Shad. These ubiquitous baitfish have been a recent favorite amongst big bait manufacturers presenting devotees with a real, and realistic alternative to tossing eight inch and larger baits. One such product that's been hiding in my tackle box? BaitSmith's very realistic five inch soft bodied shad.

Good review, interesting bait. It could do some damage over here!
One question: does it sink head down or more or less horizontal like a hudd?
but What the Finesse, it's still fish catching fun.
Isn't there something mixed up here?
