Reach deep-holding trophy predators without sacrificing a compact baitfish profile using the handcrafted Mike Bucca Bull Shad 5" Fast Sink. Built on the proven platform of the original Bull Shad, this model features added internal ballast designed to achieve a rapid, controlled descent rate (approx. 2 to 2.5 feet per second) to target offshore ledges, deep timber, river current seams, and bridge pilings.

Constructed from dense, high-impact poured resin, the 5" Fast Sink utilizes a balanced multi-joint hinge system that executes a tight, hard-thumping S-swimming action on steady winds and snaps into erratic darting cuts when twitched. The signature natural paint brush tail creates micro-turbulence, stabilizes tracking during high-speed retrieves, and flares naturally on pauses. Outfitted with heavy-duty split rings and premium treble hooks, it provides the deep-water penetration required for trophy largemouth, smallmouth, spotted bass, and stripers on conventional heavy casting tackle.
