Elevate your tackle box with a soft plastic that predators simply cannot resist. The 5" X-Cite Shad by Chaney Creek Custom Baits is a premium, hand-poured jerkbait meticulously designed to mimic the fluid, erratic action of live baitfish. Handcrafted in Jacksonville, North Carolina, this versatile 5-inch shad profile is a proven producer for both saltwater inshore slams and tournament-grade freshwater bass.
Pouring a custom, salt-free plastic blend allows the X-Cite Shad to maintain superior buoyancy and structural durability. Instead of sinking like a stone, it hovers, shimmies, and darts realistically through the water column, giving hesitant fish more time to strike. Whether you are twitching it over shallow coastal marshes or dragging it through heavy river structure, its lifelike action triggers aggressive, involuntary bites.
Why You'll Catch More Fish:
Hand-Poured Precision: Crafted in small batches in NC to ensure perfect consistency, vibrant color integration, and unmatched quality control.
Salt-Free Custom Blend: Offers enhanced buoyancy and a softer, more fluid texture that maximizes underwater action and keeps fish holding on longer.
Versatile Baitfish Profile: Perfectly replicates standard forage size, making it a deadly option for Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Largemouth Bass, and Striper.
Erratic Darting Action: Responds dynamically to every rod twitch with a sharp, side-to-side wobble, followed by a slow, natural flutter on the pause.
Recommended Rigging:
Weightless / Belly-Weighted Hook: Ideal for a stealthy, darting presentation across shallow flats, weed beds, and marsh grass.
Jig Head: Perfect for bouncing along creek mouths, ledges, and deeper river structures.
Chatterbait / Spinnerbait Trailer: Adds a realistic, full-bodied baitfish silhouette without killing the vibration of your favorite bladed jigs.
