Overview
Designed to be the ultimate dropshot bait, the NetBait BaitFuel Flat Sided Shad has all the right features to overcome challenging conditions and bring big bites to your line. The nose of the Flat Sided Shad is molded with a bulky head that makes it perfect for nose hooking or disguising the eye of your preferred finesse hook. From there, the bait transitions into a ribbed body that provides subtle, lifelike vibrations as well as increases its surface area to maximize scent dispersion and increase your effective strike zone. The Flat Sided Shad’s profile terminates with a quivering fork tail that shimmies, shakes, and dances with every twitch of the rod tip or flow of the water current.
To further entice bass to bite and hold on, the NetBait BaitFuel Flat Sided Shad comes ready to fish with an overdose of Netbait’s proprietary BaitFuel. BaitFuel is supercharged with F.A.S.T. – Fish Active Scent Technology – and is scientifically engineered to stimulate a fish’s predator instincts and ignite aggressive feeding habits. Developed in a lab and proven on the water, the NetBait BaitFuel Flat Sided Shad is engineered to be simply irresistible to any predator your lake has lurking below the surface.

Comments: The NetBait STH BaitFuel Flat Sided Shad is an excellent soft plastic bait for catching smallmouth and largemouth bass using the drop shot technique. I've been using this lure all last season in the north and have had great killed it. The flat sided shad design creates a lot of action in the water and the scent of BaitFuel really seems to attract the fish. I've found that the drop shot technique with a #1/0 VMC drop shot hook is especially effective with this lure. The ability to keep the lure in the strike zone for a longer period of time is key when using this technique. I've had the best luck using a slow drag or still and slight shake movement. Overall, I highly recommend the NetBait STH BaitFuel Flat Sided Shad for anyone looking to catch huge smallmouth and largemouth bass. It's a versatile and effective lure that can be used in all seasons and in a variety of fishing conditions.
