OMEGA Custom Tackle ALPHA SHAD

OMEGA ALPHA SHADS

When it comes to catching better than average fish I would say my two favorite baits to throw are jigs and buzzbaits. Jigs do such a great job of getting deep into the cover where the big girls live, while buzzbaits can produce the most explosive strikes.

I have been throwing OMEGA Custom Tackle’s jigs for a while now with great success and just recently I started throwing the New OMEGA ALPHA Shad buzzbait. The ALPHA Shad has just been tearing them up. While there are a lot of other buzzbaits out on the market you can really see and appreciate all the time and effort that went into creating the ALPHA Shad.

When you retrieve the bait it comes to the surface really fast and the gold blades shimmer in the sun as they hit each other on every turn of the reel which produces a ton of spit and noise unlike any buzzbait I’ve ever thrown. The buzzbait produces a great bubble trail and the skirt pulsates in the water giving off a tremendous amount of action. The blades allow you to crawl it along the bank really slow and keep it in the strike zone.This buzzbait produces the sound and action of a double buzzer but is real easy to cast due to a 7/16oz head.

The ALPHA Shad has a Z wire which works with a long shank Gamakatsu to hook bass fast and keep them hooked all the way to the net. I haven’t found the need to add a trailer hook yet. The skirts are really lively and it’s available in the Chartruese Shad “Big Money” color and Black.

The ALPHA Shad features premium components and is loaded with features that make it a "Must have" bait for those who love to pursue  big Bass with a Buzz Bait!The ALPHA Shad's blades allow for an ultra slow retrieve and with each rotation the blades click together to perfectly mimic the sound of baitfish on the waters surface. The ALPHA Blades put out a tremendous wake, create a bubble trail, and spit water to draw Bass to the surface. The nose cone in front of the blades helps deflect grass and other cover from tangling in the blades. The Z bend wire allows the ALPHA Shad to ride deeper in the water for a more natural presentation and high percentage hook ups! The ALPHA Shad's aerodynamic head quickly plains to the surface, and the APLHA Shad comes equipped with a long shank, razor sharp Gamakatsu hook. The ALPHA Shad features a hand tied Pro Tail skirt that pulsates in the water and acts as a trailer. The  ALPHA Shad has already proven itself to be deadly on giant Bass!
