The Swim Shad is a great smaller Swim Bait.  This bait was tested over the course of seval weeks prior to giving it the final stamp of approval.  The final testing came at night - to validate the action in the dark. 

The Swim Shad passed with flying colors, landing several fish in a 30 min. period.  This was the proof we were looking for; fish being attracted to the water displacement, being able to locate it, and then consume it.

The original tail is slightly thicker and puts off a heavier thump when retrieved. This is ideal for a constant retrieve, 3/8 oz or heavier swim jig, or umbrella rig. 

The thin swim tail is slightly thinner than the original to allow the same action on the fall and with a slower retrieve.  This is ideal for a stop and go retrieve, 1/4 oz or lighter swim jig, or working slowly along the bottom. 

An alternative to the swim tail would be to get the original tail and pour it in soft when you want a bait with more action on light weight or slow retrieves.
