Shad palette

The Shad Palette is a lure made up of a flexible section with a blade usually on the back.

It was during a fishing trip that Mathieu Alexandre from Biwaa came up with the idea of combining soft lures and paddles when fish were not responding well to spoons or soft lures. The Divinator, the iconic paddle lure that is so effective on pike, was born.

The different types of pallet

There are several different types of pallet on the market today:

  • colorado
  • willow
  • propeller

Each type of vane brings its own set of vibrations and lights to the water. The colorado is shaped like a drop of water. It is rounder than its sister, the willow leaf. As a result, it displaces more water and has proved effective in tracking catfish. The willow, on the other hand, is thinner and more elongated and is more commonly used on pike and black bass.

As for the propeller, it is increasingly found on Shad Palettes. Initially used for buzzing fishing, its vibrations have proved effective when prospecting.

Swimming depths of the Shad Palette

The Shad Palette comes in different sizes, weights, colours and shapes. So you can find Shad Palettes that will fish the deepest layers of water as well as those on the surface.

Fishing brands have developed this lure to suit a wide range of conditions.

the Divinator, for example, has been given a weed guard to make it easier to fish in deep, crowded water.

While has developed a surface lure with a colourado blade for effective surface fishing. Its hook is camouflaged to minimise the risk of bringing in weed.
