Delalande Drop Shad is a slender soft lure developed for drop shot fishing and other light spinning techniques. It allows the lure to remain in a selected area for longer and helps anglers target fish that respond poorly to fast-moving presentations.
Three grooves in the body and a very thin tail make Drop Shad respond to even small movements of the rod tip. Short, controlled twitches bring the rear section to life without the need to move the weight along the bottom.
The lure can be animated almost in place, retrieved very slowly or presented gradually at different depths. This subtle action is well suited to cautious and inactive perch and zander, especially in cold water or during periods of weak feeding activity.
Its slender profile creates a natural presentation on a drop shot hook, while the flexible rear section remains mobile with minimal input. Drop Shad is suitable for carefully covering slopes, underwater humps, the edges of vegetation and fish holding close to the bottom.
The range includes 5 cm / 2 in and 7 cm / 2.8 in models. The 5 cm versions are supplied in packs of 4, while the 7 cm lures come in packs of 3.
The Delalande company, created by Mr Alain Delalande in 1979 was first specialized in the sale of mounted line for coarse fishing. Quickly, the first machines for making jig heads will be purchased and the first softbaits, imported from the United States, arrive on the French market thanks to Delalande.
In the following years, the “mounted line” part is sold in order to devote itself entirely to the jig head and softbait part, in particular with the purchase of a first machine to manufacture lures. The development of the Delalande material is then underway, and the first softbaits are emerging.
It was not until 1995 that the famous Sandra was born, an innovative and affordable lure and above all extremely effective. Today it is one of the softbaits known to all generations of lure fishermen, and is present in all boxes.
Over the years, it is as a family that the company has been managed, both by Alain and his wife, as well as by their children, Tony who manages the production and Sandrine all the management and marketing part.
