An ultra-realistic shad profile swimbait that mimics the most prolific freshwater forage species, the Z-Man Shadtron LT Swimbait is built with a rounded wedge-shaped tail that delivers realistic swimming action at extremely slow retrieve speeds. Featuring a highly innovative and industry-first ‘Over/Under’ line through rigging system, anglers can rig the Shadtron top hook style with the included straight shank hook or belly-rigged using their favorite treble hook.
Designed to outlast other soft-bodied swimbaits by a wide margin, the Shadtron LT Swimbait is constructed using Z-Man’s 10X Tough Elaztech plastic material to withstand repeated strikes from large gamefish. The perfectly balanced weighted harness and highly buoyant superplastic material allows the lure to maintain an upright posture with the slowest retrieves, on the fall, and even when at rest on the lake bottom.
With a top-hook line through rigging system, the custom sickle-shaped black-nickel hook slides through the swimbait to deliver the perfect combination of heavy-duty strength, lightning-fast penetration, and excellent hook-up ratios. Finished with lifelike details like gill plates, scales, and fin details, the Z-Man Shadtron LT Swimbait is available in both slow-sink and fast-sink model options so anglers can fish shallow or deep-water environments with great efficiency.
6” shadtron is amazingThe shadtron 6” flat out gets bit and the hook to catch ratio is extremely high.

Lunker BusterThis has definitely made me a fan of swim baits. This is now a staple in my box for sure. My first fish caught on a threadfin shad was my PB 9.65lbs large mouth bass. I was one happy camper buddy.

4 out of 12 hooks don't seat in the slotno doubt these and the boom boom line thrus are 2 of the best wedge & paddle tail line thru baits! boom boom has slow but HARD/slow thump and shadtron has the slow methodical "wedge tail" style kick! killer shad patterns & sickle hook is mean! throw it on my dobyns champ xp 735c & have zero issues! just gotta slam those hooksets like you do all other jig hook swimbaits & tow em in!

Very NiceGot the 6" Shadtron LT fast sink yesterday. Tied on Mossback this morning. Fantastic looking color. Swim was very natural and lifelike. Bait stayed upright and swam straight at slow speed and on a quick retrieve too. Had a nice 4.47 pound largemouth load up on it within 5 minutes! First impressions are this bait worked very well and I am impressed. Way to go Zman and TW!! Merry Christmas!
