Mike Bucca's Weedless Baby Bull Shad - Green Pumpkin Blue Gill

Designed to be your weedless best friend around any vegetation, the Bucca Weedless Baby Bull Shad is here to catch big grass dwellers. With a jointed body and a weighted EWG hook where the weight is hidden within the belly, the life-like profile and swimming action perfectly resembles a fleeing baitfish. It’s also equipped with an inner mesh to help prevent the tail from ripping off. Make sure you use the bait with braided line, and give a firm hookset after feeling a bite. This bait is a great choice whether you’re at the local pond, or pounding shallow cover on big water. All across the country, bass love to eat baitfish and we’ve got you covered with 6 colorways for any condition. 

Features: 

• Top fin to protect the hook point and make it weedless to come through vegetation and pull through cover like wood and brush
• Mesh inside the body to help prevent the tail from ripping
• Jointed body for life-like swimming action
• One bait pre-rigged with weighted EWG hook, comes with additional bait
• Weight of the hook is hidden within the soft plastic body for life-like profile

How to Fish:

• Specifically designed to be used around shallow vegetation like weeds and lily pads, but can also be used around any shallow cover whether it be rock, wood, or docks.
• Cast and retrieve at a medium to fast pace with your rod tip down to look like a fleeing baitfish. You can also work in twitches with your rod tip to get the bait to dart side to side, and also quick turns of the reel with pauses. A lot of times a fish will hit the bait when it pauses.
• Set the hook similar to a frog bite. Once you feel the fish bite with your rod tip at horizontal to the water or pointed down, give it a quick second before sweeping your rod sideways and setting the hook hard.
