Abu Garcia Shads

Explore Abu Garcia shads for pike, zander and perch. These soft plastics combine practical predator profiles with paddle-tail action and vibration for fishing in stillwaters, canals and flowing rivers.

Choose the right Abu Garcia shad

• Pike: larger shads provide a substantial profile and strong tail action.
• Zander: slim models suit jigging, vertical fishing and controlled bottom presentations.
• Perch: compact shads work well on light jig heads and finesse tackle.

Natural colours are useful in clear water, while bright and UV-active patterns provide visibility in coloured water or low light.

Rig Abu Garcia shads correctly

Match the shad length to a suitable jig head or offset hook. Use a strong steel leader when pike are present.
