Strike King Caffeine Shad 12.5 cm — Slow-Sinking Shad That Holds Predators Longer

The Strike King Caffeine Shad is a 12.5 cm soft bait engineered to stay in the strike zone longer and keep predators biting — even when your concentration slips for a moment.

Air-Filled Bubble Tail for Maximum Visibility

The hollow, air-filled tail gives the Caffeine Shad a uniquely slow, fluttering descent. This extended sink time keeps the lure in view of predators below for longer, triggering reaction strikes from zander, perch, and pike that a faster-sinking bait would simply pass by.

Coffee Scent and High Salt Content — Hold That Bite

A built-in coffee aroma masks unnatural human scent, making predators commit more confidently. Combine that with the high salt content — which encourages fish to hold on after the initial strike — and you gain those extra seconds needed to set the hook, even on a distracted retrieve. The soft, supple rubber compound enhances both action and bite retention.

Choose the Right Variant

All variants share the same 12.5 cm length, slow-sinking action, and 8-piece pack format. Choose your colour to match water clarity and target species:

• Strike King Caffeine Shad 12.5 cm — Green Pumpkin (current): A natural, versatile hue that excels in clear to slightly coloured water; reliable all-round choice for zander and perch.

• Strike King Caffeine Shad 12.5 cm — Green Pumpkin Sapphire: A subtle variation on the classic green pumpkin with blue glitter accents; good in clearer conditions or bright light.

• Strike King Caffeine Shad 12.5 cm — Bubblegum: High-visibility pink tone; effective in murky or stained water and as a search colour for pike.

• Strike King Caffeine Shad 12.5 cm — Watermelon Red & Black (Swimbait): Natural watermelon pattern with red and black fleck; suits mid-depth retrieves in weedy, clearer venues.
