A realistic action that shivers and rolls. The "FRILLED SHAD" realistically recreates streamlined baitfish such as wakasagi (pond smelt) and moroko found in many waters. Its distinctive fan-shaped lip on top of the head deflects the water, so that simply rigging it on a jig head produces a shivering action, as if a baitfish were swimming with its body undulating. It also generates a rolling action that rocks the body from side to side with a strong flashing effect. Just retrieve it and it reproduces the demanding mid-strolling action for you.
