ZMAN CHATTERSHAD LURE 3.5 INCH – Bad Shad

ZMan ChatterShad Lure 3.5 Inch Soft Plastic Lures

The ZMan ChatterShad Lure 3.5 Inch Soft Plastic is a compact yet powerful lure, designed to attract aggressive freshwater and estuary predators such as Australian bass, mangrove jack, and flathead. This bite-sized bait excels as a ChatterBait or spinnerbait trailer, and also performs as a standalone jerkbait for finesse fishing techniques.

Crafted from ultra-durable 10X Tough ElaZtech, the ChatterShad 3.5” offers exceptional resilience while maintaining flexibility for lifelike movement. Its slim baitfish body features a diamond-shaped cross-section to amplify vibrations, while the razor-thin fan tail, enhanced with V-shaped ridges, delivers a quivering motion that’s irresistible to predatory fish.

The lure can be easily rigged weedless thanks to dorsal and ventral hook slots, making it ideal for navigating heavy cover, snags, and structure. Whether you’re twitching it through weed beds or slow-rolling it behind a spinnerbait, the ZMan ChatterShad 3.5” brings versatility and realism to your tackle box.
