SPRO KGB Chad Shad 180 Glide Bait
Unlock the elite performance of a premium, artisan-style swimbait without the custom price tag or long waiting lists. The SPRO KGB Chad Shad 180 is engineered to put absolute control directly into your hands, offering an incredibly user-friendly design that does the heavy lifting for you. Whether you are just dipping your toes into the giant-bait game or you are a seasoned tournament professional hunting for a kicker fish, this high-precision glide bait is built to trigger violent, reactionary strikes from trophy predators.
What sets this bait apart is its flawless stability at any retrieval speed. You can crawl it at a painstaking agonizing slow pace across deep points, or burn it back to the boat as fast as your reel allows—the Chad Shad 180 will never roll over or blow out. It grants anglers complete dominance over depth and direction, responding instantly to reel cranks and rod twitches to perform wide, hypnotic side-to-side glides or sharp, erratic cuts that perfectly mimic a panicked baitfish in distress.

PRO TIP: To get the absolute most out of the Chad Shad 180, try "reel-gliding" instead of moving the bait with your rod tip. Keep your rod pointed straight down the line toward the bait and use quick half-and-quarter turns of your reel handle to kick the bait from side to side. This keeps your line taut, gives you a much better feel for subtle ticks, and ensures you are in the perfect position to deliver a powerful, direct hookset the split second a bass inhales it.
