Berkley Flicker Shad Jointed

The Berkley Flicker Shad Jointed takes the proven fish-catching performance of the original Flicker Shad and adds a jointed tail for even more action, flash and vibration. Designed as an all-purpose trolling crankbait, the jointed construction creates additional tail wag, side flash and roll to imitate an active or vulnerable baitfish and attract walleye, bass and other freshwater predators.

Built around a realistic shad profile, the Berkley Flicker Shad Jointed combines the size, shape and diving characteristics of natural forage with an exaggerated jointed swimming action. The articulated body allows the rear section of the bait to move independently, creating increased tail movement as the crankbait travels through the water.

The jointed construction also creates additional rattle and rolling action, giving anglers a high-action presentation that can help fish locate the lure while trolling. This makes the Flicker Shad Jointed an excellent option when anglers want more movement and vibration than a traditional solid-body crankbait.

For walleye trolling, the Berkley Flicker Shad Jointed provides a proven shad-style profile with an aggressive action that can be presented along contour lines, over flats, around structure and through open water. Its combination of tail wag, side flash and roll creates a noticeable presentation for targeting active and suspended walleye.

The Flicker Shad Jointed can also be cast when anglers want to cover water around points, breaks, rock, deeper flats and other productive areas. Its realistic baitfish profile and jointed action make it a versatile hard bait for multiple freshwater species.

The bait features a slow-rising design, allowing it to gradually rise when forward movement is stopped. This provides anglers with another way to vary the presentation when casting or changing trolling speed.

Every Berkley Flicker Shad Jointed is individually tank tested to help ensure proper action right out of the package. The lure is also equipped with sharp Fusion19 treble hooks for dependable hook penetration when fish strike.
