Tips from our team of enthusiasts

The rig

• The Dexter Shad 150 can be used in the classic way, mounted on a jig head such as the BKK Round Elite Classic Bait Keeper or a shallow rig such as the Stinger Xorus Ulti Shallow Rig Short.
• It can also be used as a trailer behind a spinnerbait or a chatterbait.

The colour

When it comes to colour, the starting point will be the middle. The clearer the water, the more natural colours you should use; the more opaque it is, the more flashy colours or dark shades — even black — you should use. This is a base rule that will need to be adjusted day by day.
