Berkley Max St Pulstale 4.2 Green Pumpkin PBMSPT4.2-GP 6-Pack Pulse Tail Shad Lure

Meet the Berkley Max St Pulstale 4.2 inch Green Pumpkin, a classic shad tail soft lure designed to perform across freshwater and inshore waters. Each pack includes 6 pieces, each weighing 0.4 oz (11.0 g) and measuring 4.2 inches in length. The compact, balanced profile makes it versatile for a wide range of rigs without overwhelming the presentation, which is especially helpful when fish are wary or structure is tight.

The lure combines Berkley's MaxScent material with a bubble-like texture and subtle ribs along the body. This combination is intended to enhance scent dispersion while creating water displacement that can help the lure stand out on the retrieve. The tail is designed to be a touch delicate, preserving finesse when fishing near cover or during slow, methodical retrieves. It stays true to a classic shad tail silhouette, offering a familiar, proven look for many predatory species.
