• Impregnated with 100% natural Pro-Cure Mullet Super Gel scent to boost underwater attraction.
• Pack sizes: 4-inch and 5-inch come 5 baits per pack; 7-inch comes 4 baits per pack.
• Made in the USA, offering reliable build quality you can count on on tough days.

Versatile presentations for inshore, freshwater, and offshore anglers

The Jerk Shadz can be rigged weightless for a slow, fluttering glide, or paired with a weighted hook or jighead for bottom-bounced or vertical jigging retrieves. Its lifelike action adapts to multiple fishing styles, from surface twitching to deep, jigging tactics.

• Inshore targets like redfish, seatrout, flounder, and snook often respond to the slow, natural tail-kick and scent.
• Freshwater bass anglers find it effective as a surface twitchbait for largemouth and as a drop-shot option for smallmouth.
• The 7-inch variant acts as a broad search bait for bigger gamefish such as striped bass, tarpon, and musky.
• When used on heavy jigheads, it shines for vertical jigging on offshore structure for grouper, snapper, and amberjack.

Size guide and practical considerations

The 4-inch, 5-inch, and 7-inch options cover a range of depths and strike zones, with varied pack counts to fit your style and season. Choice depends on target species, water depth, and rig setup.
