Twister Sassy Shad is the closest imitation of this classic bait fish you'll find

tail design and supple body give the Sassy Shad the natural shad action fish can't
resist. You can also add a spinner form for added flash and vibration.

4" Mister Twister Sassy Shad
If you're looking for the perfect lure for northern pike, hawg largemouth bass or trophy smallmouth, look no further than the Mister Twister 4" Sassy Shad. A generation of fishermen have considered this their "confidence" lure for big bass and pike. Rig it with a 3/8 oz. jighead.
Nature Series Sassy Shad Colors
The 2-1/2", 3" and 4" Sassy Shads include colors from the Mister Twister Nature Series Sassy Shad line which are colors of nature and are the closest imitation of this classic bait fish you'll find anywhere.
4", 6" & 9" Mister Twister Saltwater Sassy Shad
The Mister Twister
Saltwater Sassy Shad is a natural swimming bait that imitates a live shad.
A perfectly engineered swimming tail gives every Saltwater Sassy Shad
fish-attracting vibration, and a look that has fooled saltwater game fish
from stripers to dolphin for more than 25 years. Use a 4" Sassy Shad for
redfish, speckled trout and snook. Rockfish prefer a 6" Sassy Shad trolled
on umbrella rigs. Regardless of the saltwater game fish you're after,
there's a Mister Twister Saltwater Sassy Shad for you.

| When fishing inlets in NJ, the 4" Sassy Shad on a jig head is my go to lure. I've caught striped bass and big fluke with regularity on it and have seen weakfish well over 10 pounds taken on this lure. I'm a believer for life. | |

| I am a teenage angler in southeastern Michigan, and I've been introduced to hundreds of baits throughout my life. Among the immense amounts I seen, the Sassy Shad blows them all away. I've introduced the Sassy Shad to everyone I fish with, and they all love it. I guess what I'm trying to say is thank you, Mister Twister, for blessing the fishing word with this amazing bait. | |

| I'm almost affraid to pass this on. Y'all will fish the lakes out. But here goes. Take a three way swivel and tie to main line then tie one 12" 20 lb braid leader to swivel and one Sassy shad. Then tie an 18" leader same lbs and another sassy Shad. Use the Shad with hooks only no weights. Like shooting fish in a Barrel. Stripes and Large Mouth. Big Blue Cats at the Dams too. Awsome rigg | |

| Fish Caught: | Bass, Striped |
| After fishing for Striped Bass on Lake Murray in SC for 25 years I have found this bait to catch 50% of all the fish. We have fished 32 days straight and got fish 31 of those days. Pearl White is all I have tried but it works so why try something different. Keep up the good work. | |

| I used the chartreuse Sassy Shad for 5 years now, it's the best river and stream bait I have ever used in my life!!!! I caught striper, small and largemouth bass, bluegill,crappie, sunfish, mackerel, bullhead, bullfrogs even and last year I landed huge 5 pound rainbow trout with it on 2 pound line, This is always in my tackle box, and it will stay there as long as I live!!!! | |

| I have been using a 2 1/2 inch Sassy for many years. This bait has caught smallmouth, largemouth, walleye and trout along with carp and catfish. I've used it on rivers(snake) and many different reservoirs. When I'm not sure what to use I start with this bait or when things are slow I will go to this bait with great success. | |

| Just returned from another successful fishing trip to Elephant Butte Reservoir, where my partner and I caught limits of white bass on the Pearl white 3" Mister Twister Sassy Shad, I rely on this lure for white bass, walleye and black bass. When I fish for Stripers or Lake trout I switch to the saltwater 4" & 6" Twister Sassy Shad and once again my favorite color, Pearl white. | |
| Reviewer: | Rusty Reiman (Yankton, South Dakota) |
|---|---|
| I found a couple years ago that using a Mister Twister Pearl White 3" Sassy with a northland 3/8 oz. either an orange and yellow or a pearl and blue stand-up jig off the Gavins Point Dam border waters is the way to catch 30 to 40 walleye or sauger a day starting the last week of Oct. to ice up. No one was using this until I showed them and now if they are quick enough they catch'em too. These things combined with the right jig and color rock thanks for an awsome product, without it I wouldn't be eating fish all winter long. Thanks again. | |

| Caught every fish that is around here on a Sassy Shad from crappie to hybrid stripers. Love these things, good lure from Spring 'til Fall . | |

| Fish Caught: | Bass, Smallmouth - Pike, Northern |
| Sassy Shad easily make my top five best lures of all time. Pike and smallmouth just love them in the four inch size. Largies also gobble them up like the are the real thing. The first bait I look to when I come across a deep hole in a river. | |

| Fish Caught: | Bass, Largemouth - Bass, Smallmouth |
| The Sassy Shad is one of the best lures I've ever used. The two and a half and three inch versions are great for bringing up huge smallmouth and largemouth bass, and the four incher gets ferrocious strikes from northern pike. I'm looking forward to trying it out on musky this season, I don't think I'll be dissappointed. Certainly in my top five favorite lures, you need to try this lure! | |
