Bass A Tiny Shad 1.5" 15ct Limetruese
The Bass Assassin Tiny Shad 1.5" soft plastic bait is a go-to choice for crappie and panfish anglers who want a compact profile that triggers aggressive strikes. This 15-count pack of limetreuse-colored baits features Bass Assassin's signature fat-belly design—a shape that mimics natural forage and encourages fish to commit rather than just inspect. The soft body texture feels substantial to feeding fish, making them hold on longer and improving your hook-up rate when you set the hook.
At 1.5 inches, these tiny shads are perfectly sized for the smaller mouths you're after in crappie, bluegill, and other panfish. The enticing tail action works whether you're fishing topwater, suspending them below a bobber, or working them along structure. Their versatility means you can fish them on a simple jig head, rig them Carolina-style, or Texas-rig them for shallow cover without overthinking the presentation.
Limetreuse is a high-visibility color that stands out in murky water and low-light conditions—ideal for dawn and dusk crappie runs or stained lakes where fish rely more on sight than lateral line detection. Keep a pack in your tackle box year-round; panfish fishing opportunity can pop up anytime, and having the right bait on hand makes all the difference between a slow day and a full cooler.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size hook or jig head works best with the 1.5" Tiny Shad?
Bass Assassin recommends pairing these small baits with proportional jig heads and hooks. For crappie fishing, most anglers use 1/32 to 1/16 ounce jigs, though water depth and current will influence your choice. Check your local tackle shop for size and weight recommendations based on the specific structure you're fishing.
Can I fish the Tiny Shad in different rigging styles?
Yes. You can rig them on a jig head for active presentations, suspend them below a bobber for crappie beds, or Texas-rig them for fishing shallow cover and grass. Their soft body holds up across multiple rigging methods, so experiment to match the conditions and feeding mood of the fish.
Is limetreuse a good color choice for all water conditions?
Limetreuse is a high-visibility color that excels in murky, stained, or low-light water—dawn, dusk, and overcast days are prime times. In clear water, you may want to experiment with other color options, but limetreuse is a reliable choice when visibility is limited.
How many baits come in the pack?
Each pack contains 15 individual 1.5-inch soft plastic shads, giving you plenty for a full day on the water or multiple outings before you need to restock.
