Description
The Bariki Shad has been designed to produce great vibrations regardless of the retrieve speed. It is indeed capable of swimming at very low speed as well as at a steady pace. A vertical slot in the tail allows you to add a small diameter lead insert to further amplify the vibrations produced by the lure. This slot can also be used to insert a rattle (ball chamber) to associate a high frequency sound to the lure's movements. Its dense material containing salt crystals and loaded with attractant makes it a fairly solid lure despite its soft rubber. This lure can be used on a lead head as well as on a 5/0 Texas hook (a ventral slot and a dorsal slot make it easier to use this type of hook). The lure has a little extra material on the back to protect the tip of a Texas hook from snags and suspended matter.
