of honest hardworking American Anglers!

SteelShad...The Baitfish Profile

Dissecting the SteelShad from top to bottom we have two split-ring holes. Note their precise location;
the forward-hole position balances the SteelShad horizontally, thus making for better vertical jigging
applications. The rear-hole allows for the nose of the SteelShad to dip down slightly. This in turn
increases vibration, allowing for more control during shallow applications.

The teardrop style weight is made of either lead or tin alloy. SteelShad’s in the Elite Series have Lead

FREE belly weights. All hooks are secured with split rings, allowing for quick hook changes and free
swinging. Most baits utilize VMC PermaSteel coated hooks preventing rust in fresh & salt water.
SteelShad 1/2 oz. Heavy Series and 3/8 oz. Elite Series come with sharp VMC Black Nickel trebles.

SteelShad bodies are extremely durable being made of malleable stainless steel. It is this stainless steel
malleable material that separates SteelShad from all other blade-baits. Unlike other traditional blade

baits, SteelShad Blade-Baits may be bent in a variety of directions and angles. All of which will change
the SteelShad’s depth, action and direction. Did I mention SteelShad’s may also be bent back to their
original shape!

Bending the SteelShad
• Bending the tail section of the SteelShad approximately 1/2 in. from the rear hook in either
direction at a 30-45 degree angle will allow for shallow to surface retrieves. (Note; this will also
allow the SteelShad to run either left or right.)

• Bending the tail section of the SteelShad approximately 1/2 in. from the rear hook in either
direction at a 90 degree angle will allow the SteelShad to run extreme right or left when retrieved.
• Bend the SteelShad just behind the weight in a ‘U’ pattern to make the SteelShad perform similar
to a buzzbait.
