Strike King Rocket Shad 3/8oz Chartreuse

The Strike King Rocket Shad 3/8oz Chartreuse is a single-blade spinner built for anglers who want to cover water fast without sacrificing stability. Whether you're working thick current, burning through open water, or targeting aggressive bass in high-activity zones, this lure maintains true tracking even at full throttle—no wobble, no excuses. The realistic head shape keeps it balanced through the entire retrieve, so you can fish it hard and keep it in the strike zone longer.

What sets the Rocket Shad apart is its bite-sized profile paired with a freely-spinning Colorado blade. That blade, coupled with a premium ball-bearing swivel, generates the right flash and vibration to call fish in from distance and trigger bites in low-visibility water. Chartreuse is a proven color choice for stained water and overcast conditions, delivering high visibility when fish need to find your bait fast.

At 3/8 ounce, this is a versatile weight that casts well on light-to-medium tackle and lets you fish a range of depths and retrieve speeds without burning your arm out. It's the kind of workhorse lure that earns its place in every bass angler's box—simple, effective, and built to produce.
