Where Can I get this Flicker Shad

I think I bought these from @nitrodog10 a couple of years ago……I have a couple left in 5 and 6. Google and Amazon come back with nothing. I can find a few perch patterns close but these work.

Let me know if anyone has ideas.

I may be wrong on this one but I thought that was Mills Fleet Farm exclusive color. Custom painting is a great option

I assumed it might have been a custom retailer color. I emailed Berkeley but I’ll be surprised if they get back to me.

Might need to go custom or maybe try some of the other 500+ flicker shads I have….

I bought that color at fleet last year. I’d check there.

I might have one. I’ll check tonight.

I’m going to try and get to FF later, too. Don’t see anything on their site though.

BTW, walleyes hate this color. Never, ever use it on the river.

I believe I have one from Fleet Farm.

I couldn’t tell you the last time I targeted walleye on the river, so your secret is safe.

It was definitely a FF exclusive color. It looks like they’ve discontinued that color and there are new FF exclusives now like Party Perch.

You can get pretty close to OBP with the “Flashy Perch” and “Slick Firetiger” colors.

Yeah, I saw flashy perch. Seems like the closest option. Hoping I get lucky and FF has some more left in stock.

Try or call Oh Shucks bait in Okoboji IA

PM me if you want it. I’ll send it to you. Never even been wet.

I can take care of you as well. I’d just need baits in the same size.

Matt her’s a dumb question: are they any good? Will be trolling for walters in about a week way planning on using Shad Raps unless these are better-whats good for depth and speed? Fish are in 7-12, lake color is dark-Thanks

I’m not sure those will work for him. I think he wants the ones with the paint chips like he has.

I like the Flicker shads for trolling – they are a little cheaper and they are lighter so they don’t work well for pitching. Shad Raps are heavier so I pitch those.

The #5 shads will probably run 6-7 feet deep at 2.0 mph. 6 and 7’s will run deeper. I can the 7’s down to 10′ or so at 2.0 – 2.5 mph. There are a ton of variables but my rule of thumb is water less than 8′ I run 5’s, greater and I run 6 and 7’s.

I chipped the paint off so you guys think that I actually catch fish….look close and you’ll also see the treble I bent!

I might retire this bait….kinda like a gladiator is given his freedom after winning so many fights.

I have 1 you can have for a small price of 100 bucks. Plus shipping. That’s a one hell of a deal.

FYI they weigh the exact same… and with the shifting on the weight with a flicker shad with the rattle beads.. they probably cast a little better than a balsa Shad Rap. But weight is the same.

We are trolling-so no diff?

Only the cost…I was positive the flickers weigh less but OK. They certainly don’t cast well imho.

If you ever come up to green I have one I’ll trade you for a bass jig. Black and blue 1/2 oz
