Missile Spunk Shad 4.5" 7ct Lava Craw

The Missile Baits Spunk Shad is a 4.5-inch pintail swimbait built for anglers who want a versatile, lifelike bait that triggers aggressive strikes across multiple rigs and presentations. This thick-bodied soft swimbait features a ribbed design and a small pintail that produces a subtle, seductive shimmy—especially effective when pitched on a Chatterbait, Scrounger, Ned rig, or fished weightless on a standard hook. The compact profile and natural action make the Spunk Shad a go-to choice for bass and other predatory fish in both shallow structure and open water.

Missile Baits developed the Spunk Shad in partnership with Hog Farmer Baits to bring a proven design into the Missile lineup without sacrificing the quality and durability anglers expect. The Lava Craw colorway is a popular choice for matching common Chatterbait profiles and working in stained to clear water. Each pack contains 7 baits, giving you plenty of options for a full day on the water or to stock your tackle box for multiple outings.

Like all Missile Baits soft plastics, the Spunk Shad is built with Missile's signature texture and scent formula, which helps fish hold on longer and improves your hookup ratio. Whether you're working grass, rock, or open water, this pintail swimbait adapts to a range of conditions and rigging styles—making it a reliable option for tournament anglers and weekend warriors alike.
