The Fiction Shad brings unmatched finesse and lifelike detail to the world of soft plastic baits. Designed for forward-facing sonar, its subtle baitfish profile and ultra-realistic 3D paint schemes make it an ideal choice for pressured fish in clear water or heavily fished areas. Crafted with precision, the Fiction Shad's natural movement in the water mimics real forage, whether you’re drop-shotting, rigging it on a jig head, or targeting suspended fish, the Fiction Shad’s versatility makes it an essential tool in any angler’s arsenal. With its perfect balance of realism and subtle action, the Fiction Shad is destined to become a staple in your tackle box. Present fish with something so lifelike they can’t resist—introduce them to the Fiction Shad. 

The deep belly of the Super Fluke causes it to dart, glide and knuckleball through the water, while its universal baitfish size allows it to tempt both limit-sized bass and the biggest fish on your lake. Rigged weightless, it skitters across the surface like an injured shad, but a belly-weighted hook or some insert weights allow you to employ it as deep as necessary.

With its compact shape and fast-paddling tails, the Ultra-Vibe Speed Craw is a jack of all trades and a master of many. It’s great by itself, dragged slowly across the bottom or pitched into heavy cover, but you can also affix it to the back of a swim jig or a vibrating jig for the deadliest trailer ever.

When you throw a Tantrum, bass better be ready! Introducing the new 3.75” Tantrum Craw – built to push fish over the edge. Its signature cupped legs and side appendages erupt with lifelike action whether you’re pitching it, dragging on a mojo rig, or as a trailer. Its kicking action is triggered as soon as it hits the water even with light weights to provoke aggressive strikes. The meaty head and body lock onto a 3/0 or 4/0 hook, making it deadly across a wide range of techniques.

Building on the success of the Tantrum Craw, the lineup now expands with a bigger, bulkier 4.25-inch version designed to target big bass. It retains the same proven profile and action-packed appendages, allowing you to fish the lightest weight possible while presenting a larger, more enticing profile. Its signature cupped legs and side appendages come alive with lifelike action whether you’re pitching, punching, dragging it on a Carolina rig, or fishing it as a jig trailer. The kicking action starts instantly on entry, even on lighter weights helping trigger aggressive strikes. A meaty head and body lock securely onto a 4/0 to 6/0 wide gap or flipping hook, making it the ideal choice when targeting bigger bass on heavier gear.

The new McCrawly builds on the success of the McCraw with 3 major improvements: bulked up the head and body for improved rigging and durability, improved the action on the fall with the addition of our new Easy Start legs and increased the weight by 10% for a better overall rate of fall.
