Product Information

Full details

The Fox Rage Zander Pro Shad UV Mixed Pack is designed for predator anglers who want a versatile selection of high-visibility, light-reactive soft baits to tackle changing water conditions. These lures feature a proven shad profile that effectively mimics natural prey, giving you an edge in both clear and murky water. While these lures excel in triggering strikes through their UV spectrum, users should note that the pack contains a curated mix of colors, meaning you cannot select a single color exclusively.

FAQs

What is the primary benefit of UV lures?

UV lures reflect ultraviolet light, making them significantly more visible to fish in murky water or low-light conditions compared to standard colors.

Are these lures only for Zander?

No, while they are named for Zander, they are highly effective for other predatory fish like Pike, Perch, and even large trout.

What jig head size do I need for the 12cm model?

A 3/0 or 4/0 jig head is typically recommended for the 12cm Zander Pro Shad to ensure the hook point exits at the correct position on the back.

Can I store these with my other soft plastics?

It is best to store them separately or with similar Fox Rage materials to prevent 'color bleeding' where different plastic types react and stain each other.

How should I retrieve these lures?

The Zander Pro Shad has a very versatile action. It works well with a steady retrieve, a 'lift and drop' jigging technique, or even slow trolling.

Does the UV effect wear off?

The UV pigment is mixed into the material itself, so the effectiveness remains throughout the life of the lure.

Troubleshooting

Lure swimming on its side

Check that the jig head is centered; if the lure is mounted crooked, remove it and re-thread it straight on the hook shank.

Tail not vibrating properly

Ensure the lure isn't being retrieved too slowly and verify that the hook isn't protruding too far down the body, which can stiffen the action.

Lure slipping down the hook

Use a small drop of super glue on the jig head collar before sliding the lure up to secure it in place.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • UV visibility increases strike rates in diverse water conditions
  • Iconic shad tail action works consistently across various retrieval speeds
  • Multi-pack offers excellent value and testing versatility
  • Effective across multiple species including Zander, Pike, and Perch

Cons

  • Colors are pre-mixed, limiting choice for specific pattern preferences
  • Soft plastic can be damaged by repeated strikes from large teeth
  • Requires proper storage to prevent color bleeding between different lure types

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best performance, rig these shads with a matching jig head hook size, typically 3/0 or 4/0 for the 12cm model. Ensure the hook point is centered to maintain the lure's natural swimming motion. For care, store these lures in their original packaging or a dedicated lure box made of hard plastic that is plasticizer-safe. Keep away from direct sunlight for extended periods when not in use to maintain the integrity of the soft material. After fishing, rinse the lures with fresh water if you have been in a brackish environment to prevent hook rust on your jig heads.
