NetBait HexTek EKO Shad – 3″ & 4″ HexTek Swimbaits for Bass & Predators

Overview

The NetBait HexTek EKO Shad delivers elevated action, scent, and presentation in a compact soft-plastic swimbait. Available in 3" and 4" versions, it mirrors local baitfish sizes while staying versatile across conditions. The tapered beaver-tail yields a smooth, natural swim even with subtle twitches, helping the bait track with realism. Its flat-sided silhouette is crafted for forward-facing sonar (FFS), providing strong, readable returns in both clear and stained water. Hexagonal surface pockets boost surface area to hold BaitFuel scent attractant, releasing it gradually to sustain fish interest over longer windows. A broad lineup of baitfish finishes, including albino shad, gives you visual options for different forage environments. Rigging on jig heads, swimbait heads, or trailers remains straightforward, making this a flexible tool in a practical, performance-focused lineup.
