Powerbait Rib Shad

The Berkley Powerbait Rib Shad is a right-sized swimbait that's effective at any depth, and it can be fished using a variety of rigging methods. There are times when a small swimbait is the only thing pressured bass will hit, and the Rib Shad presents the perfect profile and swimming action to draw strikes.

At 4 1/2", this bait is the bite-sized morsel that predators want to see. You can rig it on an umbrella rig, a small jig head, or use a weighted-belly hook. A dozen popular color patterns help you match your local baitfish, and the Rib Shad is loaded with Powerbait formula. This bait is highly effective when danced around vegetation or near bottom structure, and you can swim it with a moderately fast retrieve to attract fish in open water.
