DRT Cramp Shad

DRT Cramp Shad: Slim 4.5 Inch Softbait for Perch, Zander and Bass

The DRT Cramp Shad is a slim 4.5 inch (11 cm) softbait that works for bass, and just as well for perch and zander. Where most softbaits stick to one tail, the Cramp Shad combines a small V-tail with a paddle tail that kicks at a very high frequency.

That combination gives you a natural, subtle swimming action that mimics a small baitfish and speaks straight to the lateral line of the predator. You can jig it in the classic way, but it also shows its appeal on a slow retrieve.

Rig it on a light jighead, fish it weightless or put it on a weighted offset hook. When you want a wider body with a gliding action, take a look at the Cramp Shad FAT.
