Strike King Swim'n Caffeine Shad Softbait 7pc 12.5cm KVD Magic Paddle Tail

Strike King Swim'n Caffeine Shad — Salt- and Scent-Loaded Paddle Tail Swimbait for Predators

The Strike King Swim'n Caffeine Shad is a 12.5 cm paddle tail swimbait built for active fishing on pike, zander, and perch. Seven lures per pack, in KVD Magic colour, give you the flexibility to experiment and keep fishing.

Natural Action at Any Retrieve Speed

Strike King uses a soft plastic compound that responds to even the lightest forward pressure, producing a fluid, rolling action through the paddle tail. This means the lure is working whether you're crawling it near the bottom or burning it through open water — no need for a high-speed retrieve to trigger the bait.

Coffee Scent and Salt Impregnation

Every Swim'n Caffeine Shad (the "Caffeine" refers to the coffee scent infused into the plastic) is enriched with salts and a distinctive coffee aroma. The scent trail helps predators locate and hold onto the bait longer, which can make a real difference on pressured waters or when fish are following without committing.

Choose the Right Variant

All variants share the same 12.5 cm paddle tail swimbait format in packs of 7. Colour choice is the key decision — match it to water clarity and light conditions:

• KVD Magic — versatile, natural baitfish tones; a strong all-round choice across varying conditions

• Baby Bass — green/brown baitfish pattern; effective in weedy or stained water

• Ghost Shad — translucent natural shad imitation; ideal in clear water or bright conditions

• Pearl Shad — bright pearl with shad colouring; good in low light or slightly off-colour water

• Pearl Blue Glimmer Back — pearl base with a blue-tinted back for added flash; suits overcast skies or deeper water

• Smokey Shad — muted grey-smoke tones; a subtle option for clear, heavily pressured venues

• Pearl — high-visibility, clean white/pearl; useful in dark or murky conditions
