Strike King's Caffeine Shad offers a unique bubble tail to give this topwater shad bait an awesome action that's never been seen before. Offering the world's best blend of soft plastic ingredients, the Caffeine Shad contains large amounts of salt and coffee scent. This deadly combination keeps the Caffeine Shads soft and pliable, while increasing the Caffeine Shad's appeal by masking human scents and making fish hold the bite longer for increased hook-ups. Rig weightless and twitch for an awesome topwater bite or fish it on a Carolina rig or jig head for that deep water bite.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by CougBob Nice Action!
I tried these for the first time this past weekend, and found them to have a very enticing action, both on the fall and after a light jerk, the tail actually seems to be moving in a swimming action that had the Bass coming out of cover and eating it. It worked on the retreive and also pitching into cover. By far the best action of a shad jerkbait I have tried!

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Bassinman Excellent soft jerkbait!
This is a great bait. I use this whenever I see fish feeding. You can fish it fast, slow, moderate speed, as a topwater, anything you want, and this bait will catch fish. I use a 4/0 EWG and texas rig this lure weightless. i use it on my spinning rod, and I use a twitching retrieve. This is a great sight fishing bait, too. My favorite color is the smokin' shad, but I am excited to try the baby bass color. The coffee scent is genius, too. I think that it really helps get more bites. The bait is really durable, too. Great bait, and I can't wait to use the rest of the perfect plastics baits.

I had been using zoom flukes as a go-to bait for a long time, but i think i might have found a new bait. On my third cast, i caught a 2 or 3 pound largemouth bass after fishing only for 10 minutes. I was using the baby bass color, and i noticed that this bait has a nice flash. the bait was rigged texas style, and i used a slow twitch to reel it in with my baitcast. This is one of my new favorite baits.

What type and size hooks do you rig these with?Answers
A:Â
4/0 or 5/0 CPS Owner hook. The smaller spring lock helps preserve the head and will make the lure last approximately 4-5 fish before having to replace it.A:Â
I use a 4/0 gamakatsu skip gap hook for the 5" shad.A:Â
a 3/0 worm hook for the5 inch seems to help keep the bait fishable for a bit longer. they really are susceptable to tearing easily.A:Â
3/0 or 4/0 BassPro Shops widegap hooks in redA:Â
4/0 ewg gamakatsu worked best for me

I have bought several packs of Caffeine Shad and about half of them come with a plastic liner inside holding the jerkbait closer while the other half do not come with that plastic liner? The ones that do not have a plastic liner, are more greasier and I have noticed that they catch more fish than the pack that contains the plastic liner which are not as greasy and are lighter in color. What is that plastic liner for and why do some come with it while others do not?Answers

There is no reason other than to keep the baits separated from each other and formed the way they should be.A:Â
idk why..i think the newer models come with that so the tail dosent get all mangled...its fine it most likely wont affect ur fishing...it happens to me tooDetails:Â
I'm fishing in muddy water with a foot of visibility, so what color should I use?Answers
A:Â
In Colorado, I had very similar conditions to what you described - muddy water with about a foot of visibility. We were backlit with bright sunlight one day and cloudy skies the next. In both sunlight conditions, the Baby Bass color worked extremely well.A:Â
My pond is basically the same. Its very muddy and weedy, i got the cafiene shad in kvd magic color and found that it is a great bait for dirty water. I have caught many 5lb bass w/ this baitA:Â
Smokin Shad works great they look like a real shadA:Â
Plastics - Green Pumpkin / Junebug / BlackSpinnerbait - White / Chartreuse
A:Â
In dark water you want to use dark colors like blacks, blues and purples. Chartruese, white and other bright colors work well too. stay away from the natural colors in muddy water.A:Â
baby bass or white....anything with some flakes in it should do the trick
Top 25 Contributor
A:Â
Anything darker will be best in the stained water. It is opposite of what you would think.

I would say the lighter the color the better. in darker water you need a bait that has a good visual presentation as well as Audio presentation. The bass will more likely go for a white or pearl color rather than a dark color in murky/ darker water.1 of 1
