The Headbanger BangerShad 4-3/4" is a bait full of life — made of extremely elastic, durable, phthalate-free TPE plastics with a waggling action and lots of belly flash at any retrieve speed.
Why anglers fish the BangerShad 4-3/4"
- Paddle tail kicks at the slowest retrieves — plus an amazing action on the drop
- Floating TPE — the tail rises on the pause, like a baitfish feeding on the bottom
- Mid-size profile — covers big perch, walleye, and active pike
- Ultra-elastic, phthalate-free TPE — holds up to aggressive fish
- Detailed scale exterior — 5 baits per pack
When and how to fish it
Rig it weightless, on a jig head, or on a Headbanger RockerHead for the signature erratic paddle-tail action. Straight retrieves cover water, drops and pauses trigger the bites — the floating tail keeps working even when the bait sits still.
TPE care: Don't mix TPE lures with regular PVC plastics. Use a TPE-approved box, keep colors separated, and avoid strong heat.
THE SEARCH FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT
For a long time, Swedish artist and passionate angler, Dan Lestander, was looking for a long-casting lure that also moved with a pattern that didn’t repeat itself like traditional lures did. After he realized that no such lure existed and the desire for it grew too strong, the only solution was to start experimenting on his own.
He started thinking about how he could create a lure that interacts with its element, water, in a way that would imitate a real wounded and stressed prey much more accurately than what had previously been achieved. He spent more than four years putting in a ton of effort into finding the key to making the lure behave in the way he had envisioned. Using his skills as a professional sculptor, he constructed over 50 different prototypes, handcrafted and handpainted, to test his theories.
The result of his discoveries was a revolutionary construction that made the lures behave in a way that he never could have dreamt about. Soon he found himself with a number of ideas of different lures that could be created with this, now patented, technical construction. These lures are what we are now creating and sharing with you.
