This flicker action, along with the built-in rattles, triggers predatory gamefish to strike. Every Flicker Shad Crankbait is individually tank tested by Berkley to run true. These lures also feature design insight from professional anglers, fish attracting colors and finishes and quality split rings outfitted with extra sticky, Mustad Ultra Point black chrome treble hooks.

Comments about Berkley Berkley Flicker Shad Crankbaits:

I caught over 50 walleye this November. Smallest
was 17 inches and largest was 25 inches. Best crankbait I have ever used on Walleye. Just remember to take a few to eat and release the rest. They won't get to 30 inches if you don't practice catch and release.

Comments about Berkley Berkley Flicker Shad Crankbaits:

Excellent trolling with lead core or regular braided line and throwing to shore. Have caught a lot of walleye, wiper, white bass, some catfish, smallmouth and even drum. Not near as pricey as others similar. Hooks are a very sharp but a little flimsy and easily replaced.

Comments about Berkley Berkley Flicker Shad Crankbaits:

I have been using these for 3-4 years and they have become my favorite crankbait. I mostly use these trolling for wipers and walleyes, but I have caught just about everything on them. My favorite color is the white pearl, but I use several of the other colors as well depending upon conditions. Compared to most crankbaits these are quite affordable. They have lifelike action that the fish can't resist, and super sharp hooks. My 78 year old father has been an avid fisherman all his life and he is now a dedicated fan of these crankbaits as well. They just work so well, you can't help but like them.

Comments about Berkley Berkley Flicker Shad Crankbaits:

1.I fish Bull Shoals lake in Mountain Home Ar. year around, lure is great winter fishing on lead core in 60' water for walleye.Spring time it is great for night time walleye, throwing to the shore line the 2'' Flicker works better than the 3'' because when the lure hits the waters edge the 2'' doesn't dive as fast and go under the fish. 2.Work good on a variety of speeds also the 3'' casts into the wind well.
