Bill Siemantel, professional Black Bass angler from America and SPRO consultant, has focused himself on the development and fine-tuning of the new SPRO BBZ-1 4” Shad. Originally developed for Black Bass fishing, but also perfectly suitable for pike, zander and perch fishing… the first catches of ASP are even reported as well!
BBZ-1 4”
The new BBZ-1 4” Shad is available in 4 attractive designs: Blue Back Herring, Dirty Shad, Sexy Lavender and Natural Shad. Just like its bigger brother the tail and fins are made of durable soft-plastic, that add that little extra bit of vivid action… but the BBZ has been designed that it can even swim perfectly without.
Floater
The floating 4” BBZ Shad can be fished with a wide variety of fishing styles: from slow retrieving to superfast retrieving and anything in between. With fast retrieving, the shad causes a lot of disturbance on the surface… predator fish are triggered to attack it aggressively. A spectacular way of fishing in shallow water!
Slow Sink
The slow sinking 4” shad sinks with about 30cm per 4 seconds to the bottom. Carefully balanced so that the shad reacts very natural. Special recommendation from Bill Siemantel: “Let the BBZ-1 sink to the bottom with a slack line. Let the wind catch the line, so that the lure will swim itself. Once the BBZ-1 rests on the bottom, it stands on the treble. Fish it back from there with small twitches, or repeat this ‘trick’ with the wind and slack line. A real killer!
Fast Sink
Whoever thinks that the Fast Sink can only be used in deep water, is wrong. With an estimated sinking speed of around 30cm per second, this Swimbait can also be used perfectly for fast retrieving in shallow water. Because of the life-like action it resembles a spooked baitfish, which makes it irresistible for predator fish! Just like the well known SPRO Screamin’Devils this sinking version is designed with a Nose-Down feature that imitates a feeding baitfish.
The BBZ-1 Shad is promised to be an absolute hit in European predator scene, just like his big brother!
The smaller size makes it better suitable for active casting, something that is a big surplus for fishing the many small rivers, canals and ponds. BBZ-1 Shad, less = more!
