A Bassmaster Classic victory and more than $1 million in prize money doesn’t happen by accident. When introduced, this flat-sided deep-runner completely renovated the crankbait market. With an enticing tight action, the Fat Free Shad is responsive with an ease of retrieve never before seen in a bait of its size and running depth.
Add the latest advances in colour and reflectivity, realistic 3D eyes and XCalibur Tx3 treble hooks and you have the premier deep-diving crankbait on the market.
The Bomber Fat Free Shad Deep Square Lip combines the tried-and-true Fat Free Shad body shape with a special square-lip bill that deflects cover like a champ. Adding more snag-free ability is the bait’s nose-down attitude in the water, which positions the hooks behind the big body and keeps them out of trouble. It’s the perfect crankbait for fishing mid-depth cover or structure.
The Flatmaxx Deep is a thin, flat-sided crank perfect for cool water or finicky fish. The coffin-style lip is designed to deflect off cover and snags while giving the bait a tight-swimming action on the retrieve. The Flatmaxx Shallow is perfect for early prespawn when bass are starting to move shallower but aren’t active enough to attack a bait with a wider swimming action.
• Thin body creates subtle vibration and muted rattle.
• Perfect shad profile.
• Coffin style lip deflects off obstructions and snags.
• Dives to around 12 feet.
