Bass A Tiny Shad 1.5" 15ct Spring Minnow

The Bass Assassin Baits Tiny Shad 1.5" Spring Minnow is a soft-plastic crappie bait built for anglers who want a lifelike presentation that actually holds fish. This 15-count pack delivers the versatility panfish hunters need: each bait features a distinctive fat-belly profile and a responsive tail action that triggers strikes across different water columns and fishing techniques.

Whether you're fishing topwater for aggressive early-season crappie or working subsurface with a Carolina or Texas rig, the soft body texture of the Tiny Shad mimics natural baitfish movement while giving fish something substantial to bite. That fleshy feel translates to longer holds—fewer missed fish and more successful hooksets. The compact 1.5" profile makes it ideal for targeting crappie and other panfish that prefer natural-looking, modest-sized offerings.

With 15 baits per pack, you get enough inventory to experiment with different rigging methods, colors, and presentations without constantly reprinting baits. The Tiny Shad works year-round and adapts to various conditions, making it a smart core bait for any crappie angler's tackle box.

Frequently Asked Questions

What fish can I catch with the Bass Assassin Tiny Shad?

The Tiny Shad is designed specifically for crappie and panfish, though its natural profile appeals to any predator that feeds on small baitfish. The 1.5" size makes it particularly effective for crappie applications.

How should I rig the Tiny Shad for crappie?

You can fish it multiple ways depending on conditions: topwater for active fish near the surface, subsurface for deeper presentations, Carolina rig for covering water, or Texas rig for tight cover. Experiment with different approaches to match the activity level and water depth you're fishing.

Why does the fat-belly design matter?

The distinctive fat-belly profile creates a more lifelike silhouette and generates greater visual appeal and action in the water compared to conventional shad shapes. Combined with the soft body texture, it draws more strikes and encourages fish to hold on longer once they bite.

How many baits do I get in a pack?

Each pack contains 15 Tiny Shads, giving you plenty of baits for a full day of fishing or to try different rigging techniques and colors.
