The Tango Shad, since its release
almost four years ago, has carved a
reputation as one of the best flathead
lures available. Its small profile, its
ability to swim well with or against the
current, its ability to clear weed and
the ease of use have made this lure
a regular on the end of many
trollers’ rods.
It’s not just the casual angler who
is making ends meet with this lure
though, keen tournament anglers are
using this lure as a key part of their
fishing strategy and it’s working.
This was never more evident than
the 2016 Flathead Classic when
Team Wilson took out the event
16
by cunningly trolling Tango Shads
where others feared to troll.
Further to this, both Team Wilson
and Team Zerek finished in the Top
5 at the 2015 Flathead Classic and
both teams attributed the Tango
Shad as being very important for
their success.
