StormX Storm Shad 5" Floating Soft Lure (AU/NZ)

The StormX Storm Shad 5" is a compact, floating soft lure designed for precision strikes and consistently high hook-up rates. Engineered for versatility, its small, responsive profile delivers bigger results on snapper, reef fish, and estuary predators across Australia and New Zealand—without compromising on sustainability.

Realistic action that draws instinctive bites

• Baitfish-inspired body with a chunky silhouette and a lifelike forked tail that creates natural, convincing movement on every retrieve.
• Controlled presentations from shore to drifting structure, with a tail that flutters on the drop and a pause that suspends, triggering vulnerable bites.
• Subtle vibration and flash that cut through both clear and stained waters, mimicking local forage like pilchards, mullet, and hardyhead.

ProBait Natural Scent Infusion

Each Storm Shad 5" comes pre-loaded with Wise Angler’s ProBait™ scent—an all-natural attractant proven to increase strike rates, especially in pressured or high-traffic environments. The scent works with the lure’s natural action to entice bites that other soft plastics might miss.

Designed for AU & NZ waters

Locally designed and tested for species, conditions, and techniques unique to Australia and New Zealand. Whether you’re chasing snapper in Port Phillip Bay, bream in estuaries, or trevally along inshore reefs, the Storm Shad 5" is tuned to deliver dependable action in the regions that matter most.

Sustainability without compromise

Made to fish clean. The Storm Shad 5" is free from PVC, plastisol, and phthalates. Each pack is 100% plastic-free inside and out, using certified compostable materials. Fewer restocks and less environmental impact mean more time on the water and less waste in the environment.

One lure, many proven applications

Ideal for both land-based casting and inshore boat fishing on mid-size predators. Its floating body enables deliberate, slow-roll retrieves or twitch-and-pause sequences, while the tail’s natural flutter on the drop keeps the lure in the strike zone longer and increases opportunities for a hookup.
