Bomber Fat Free Shad 1oz 3" 12-16' Foxy Shad

The Bomber Fat Free Shad is a hard-bodied diving crankbait built for anglers who want a deep-running lure that doesn't sacrifice responsiveness. At 1 ounce and 3 inches long, this flat-sided crankbait dives to 12–16 feet, reaching the strike zone where bass and other game fish hold in deeper water. The tight, enticing action triggers bites on the cast-and-retrieve, even when you're working it steadily—no twitching or erratic movement required. It's the kind of bait that earns its place in your tackle box on days when you need to cover deep structure without fighting the lure every inch of the way.

The "Fat Free" designation reflects a design philosophy: maximum depth and action from a compact profile. This flat-sided construction is part of what makes the Fat Free Shad so effective; it creates distinctive vibration and flash that appeals to hungry fish while remaining easy to cast and control. The Foxy Shad finish delivers a natural, realistic pattern that works across a range of water conditions and times of year.

Whether you're targeting offshore structure, deep creek channels, or submerged timber, the Bomber Fat Free Shad gives you a proven tool that balances depth capability with the kind of lifelike swimming action that draws bites. It's a workhorse crankbait for anglers who respect tradition but demand modern performance.
