Decent day on Normandy today-started out with a “Great” New Shadow Rap Shad (Haymaker Color) bite. I don’t have all the new colors yet but “For Me” the Haymaker caught my eye instantly. They would absolutely nail this bait. www.rapala.com  The Shadow Rap Shad comes in 24 colors and 2 sizes. It has a slow- vertical “rise” on pause action which perfectly mimic a shad in trouble. Larger profile presents more flash as it Kicks almost 180 degrees right then left, with very little forward travel, it stays in the strike zone. If you use a sharp snap and leave some slack line, it will actually spin around and look backwards. I caught and released 15 total with the 7 above being the best of the bunch. I was throwing these on 8lb Sufix Mono www.sufix.com and my favorite Jerk Bait Rod that I have had for 15 years or more. If I ever lost or broke this rod I would mourn. Believe me you need to get some of these new Shadow Rap Shads in your boat. Thanks for visiting my site. Rick McFerrin www.tennesseebassguides.com
