2.5" Micro Drunkin Shad
Our 2.5" Micro Drunkin Shad is the perfect "Tiny Fluke" style soft Jerkbait. At 2.5" it mimics small baitfish which the bass feed on throughout the year, but heavily during the fall, as baitfish migrate into the backs of coves. With the popularity of forward facing sonar, this "minnow" style bait is winning millions when fished around suspended bass or bass around brush piles.
Rigging: The ideal rig we've found for these is on our 1/4 oz Ledge Knocker Swimbait Jig Head, or one of our 3/16 oz Wrecking Ball Jig heads and fished at the level of the bass. Use a 7' Medium light spinning rod, on 10lb braid to an 6lb florocarbon leader. Cast the jighead out and reel it through the level of the fish. During the entirety of the retrieve, perform small tight rod twitches, this will make the bait dart and pop along, fluttering it's tail, bringing it to life.
