New feature Fox Rage, the Scent Shad revolutionizes soft lure fishing with attractant by combining technological innovation and maximum olfactory attractiveness. This shad triggers frank reflexes even on the most cautious predators thanks to its many advantages. The Scent Shad is impregnated with the Fish Snax attractant, an exclusive formulation developed by Fox Rage to maximize the lure's attractiveness. Unlike surface scents that quickly dissipate, this deep attractant releases constant olfactory signals in the water.
This powerful chemical signature produces three decisive effects:
- Attraction from a distance: Predators detect the lure well before they see it
- Attack trigger: The aroma stimulates the predatory instinct
- Better mouth grip: Fish hold the lure in their mouths longer, drastically increasing hook-up rates
Made from SuperSoft gum, this material constitutes the technological heart of the Scent Shad. This ultra-soft gum has a realistic texture that fools even the most educated predators. At the moment of touch, the lure naturally folds in the fish's mouth, facilitating hooking.
This extreme flexibility does not alter its durability after many catches. The Scent Shad remarkably resists the sharp teeth of pikes and the powerful jaws of big pike perches, allowing you to catch several fish with the same lure.
The Rage shield-shaped tail is the major innovation of this shad. This large tail generates extreme water displacement even at the slowest recovery speeds, creating irresistible pressure waves for predators.
In slow linear animation, the tail beats widely and produces low frequency vibrations that fish detect from afar even in murky or deep water. This vibratory signature attracts the attention of lurking pike perches and actively hunting perches.
The mid-section rib is not just a simple aesthetic detail. This structural edge divides the body into two articulated areas that undulate independently during swimming. The resulting movement perfectly mimics the swimming of a healthy forage fish.
This segmentation also allows for better lateral flexibility, the lure developing a realistic rolling motion that generates captivating flashes of light thanks to glitter and holographic finishes.
The irregularities under the belly fulfill a double innovative tactical function:
- Increase in vibrations: These protrusions create additional turbulence in the flow of water, amplifying the lure's vibratory signature. Predators detect these micro-vibrations via their lateral line, even in zero visibility conditions.
- Attractant reservoir: The textured surface perfectly retains liquid or gel attractants you want to add. Apply your favorite scent between the spikes to create a custom olfactory cocktail adapted to your waters and target fish.
The Scent Shad benefits from strategic weedless mounting slots under the belly and at the rear. These pre-cuts facilitate the insertion of Texas hooks, making the lure practically snag-free for fishing:
- Dense weeds where perches and pikes hide
- Submerged woods frequented by pike perches
- Rocky areas without fearing material loss
- Surface water lilies for explosive attacks
The Rage Scent Shad was specially developed to optimize the capture of perchids. Every aspect of its design responds to the specific hunting behaviors of the common perch and the pike perch lucioperca:
For perch
- Compact profile imitating bleak and roach
- Intense vibrations triggering the aggressiveness of schools
- Sizes 7 and 9 cm perfect for medium to large zebras
- Lively action corresponding to their rapid attack mode
For pike perch
- Soft swimming adapted to their methodical attacks
- Fish Snax aroma prolonging the angling phase
- Sizes 11 and 13 cm ideal for large specimens
- Texas mounting for fishing crowded posts
The Scent Shad can be used with several animations:
- Slow linear animation: Continuous recovery at reduced speed activates the hypnotic beating of the Rage Shield tail. Ideal for post sanders and perches in hunting.
- Vertical and traction: In boat, scratching fishing with vertical pulls followed by breaks perfectly exploits the flexibility of the SuperSoft material and the attractiveness of the scent.
- Drop Shot: Mounted in drop shot, the Scent Shad wriggles irresistibly in place, diffusing its aroma in the strike zone.
- Weedless Texas Mount: To prospect crowded areas without snags, the Texas mount transforms this shad into a formidable anti-weed weapon.
- Carolina Rig: The Carolina rig allows you to drag the Scent Shad slowly on the bottom, leaving a fragrant trail that the pike perches follow until the attack.
