I caught some really nice trout the first time I tried them at Bear River Resort. I got a 6, a 5 and a 4lb er on various colors trolling. And I will be using them at Collins lake during the NTAC finals in November.

About this product
Catch America is officially in the plug game!
Meet the Trigger Shad, a compact 2 inch diving plug built to mimic the baitfish that trophy trout and bass cannot resist. After 12 months of on-the-water testing by our guides, it has proven itself on trout, king salmon, largemouth and smallmouth bass, and crappie. Cast it or troll it.
Built with a 1" bill, the Trigger Shad dives into that key 7-11 ft strike zone with ease. It comes rigged with two sharp treble hooks and features a built-in rattle that calls fish in and triggers aggressive strikes.
Small profile. Big results.
Questions and answers
What is the Trigger Shad best for?
The Trigger Shad is a compact 2 inch diving plug that mimics the baitfish trophy trout key on. It also produces on king salmon, bass, and crappie. The small profile draws strikes when fish are picky, and it fishes well both cast and trolled around baitfish schools.
How deep does the Trigger Shad dive?
Built with a 1 inch bill, the Trigger Shad dives into the 7 to 11 foot strike zone with ease. That range covers a lot of active trout holding just under the surface layer. Let out more line or troll a touch slower to fine-tune where it runs.
How do you fish the Trigger Shad?
Cast it toward structure and retrieve, or troll it behind the boat to cover water. It comes rigged with two sharp treble hooks and a built-in rattle that calls fish in and triggers aggressive strikes. Vary your speed until the plug's tight wobble draws a reaction bite.
What colors does the Trigger Shad come in?
The Trigger Shad is available in 29 shad-pattern colors, including Golden Shad, Clown Shad, Fire Tiger Shad, Rainbow Shad, Wonder Bread Shad, and Purple Disco Shad. Run natural silver and gold shad tones in clear water, and switch to brighter or darker patterns when visibility drops.
Why does the Trigger Shad have a rattle?
The built-in rattle adds sound to the flash and wobble. It calls fish in from a distance and triggers aggressive reaction strikes, which matters in stained water or low light when trout hunt more by vibration than by sight. Two sharp treble hooks convert those strikes to hookups.
Is the Trigger Shad guide tested?
Yes. Catch America guides ran the Trigger Shad through 12 months of on-the-water testing before release. In that time it proved itself on trout, king salmon, bass, and crappie. That testing is why the plug's small profile and diving action are dialed in for finicky, pressured fish.
What can I add to the Trigger Shad for more bites?
Layer in scent to extend your strike window. A dab of Trigger Scent UV Gel by Cal Kellogg on the plug leaves a scent trail behind the wobble and rattle, giving trailing trout and salmon an extra reason to commit on slow, high-pressure days.
