Rapala Ultra Light Shad 4cm 1.2–1.5m 3g Rainbow Trout

Rapala Ultra Light Shad 4cm – Precision Micro Wobbler for Trout and Perch

The Rapala Ultra Light Shad is a compact 4 cm, 3 g hard bait designed to fool wary trout and perch in clear, pressured water. In Rainbow Trout colour, its lifelike finish is especially effective when fish are keying on small fry.

Cast Far, Present Precisely

The weighted body punches well above its size class, delivering long, accurate casts even on ultralight or light spinning gear. Whether you're working tight to cover or fan-casting a pool, the Ultra Light Shad lands where you point it.

Versatile Action – Steady Retrieve or Erratic Twitching

The long bill dives to 1.2–1.5 m with a tight, aggressive wobble that triggers reaction strikes on a standard retrieve. Pause the reel and the lure slow-sinks enticingly – ideal for twitching and jerking techniques that mimic a wounded baitfish. This combination makes it a serious tool for both trout in streams and rivers and perch around structure.
