CloseBridge the gap between oversized trophy swimbaits and conventional casting lures with the Bucca Brand Bull Shad 5" (1 oz). Designed by swimbait authority Mike Bucca, this four-jointed hard swimbait brings the iconic, erratic S-swimming action of the original custom resin Bull Shad into a versatile, injection-molded ABS construction.
Molded from high-impact ABS plastic, the 5-inch body withstands aggressive strikes against riprap, concrete bridge pilings, and standing timber while showcasing realistic, detailed baitfish patterns. At its tail, Bucca's trademark natural fiber brush tail stabilizes the retrieve, prevents unnatural body roll, and flares subtly whenever the retrieve is stopped. Weighing in at 1 oz, the 5" Bull Shad casts easily on standard heavy-action bass rods and 15 lb to 20 lb fluorocarbon—giving tournament and bank anglers a big-bait drawing power without requiring dedicated swimbait gear.
