Nomad Live Ops Cobra Shad Soft Plastic Lure 4.5in Tennessee Shad

The Nomad Cobra Shad isn’t your average soft plastic - it’s a high-performance finesse bait built to trigger strikes when other lures just get ignored. Designed with flared cobra-style wings and a razor-thin tail, this lure delivers a unique jumping action that flicks upwards with each twitch of the rod. That vertical lift mimics a baitfish fleeing danger, and fish can’t help but smash it.

It’s powered by Nomad’s Adjusta-Ball Internal Tungsten Weight System, giving you full control over the sink rate and fall angle. Want a slow horizontal glide? Done. Want it to nose-dive or tail-drop into a snag zone? Easy. Two tungsten balls come preloaded, and you get an applicator tube to add or adjust the balance as needed.

The Titan RX TPE body is super stretchy and nearly indestructible, meaning this lure keeps swimming after countless hookups. Rippled belly fins hold extra scent and add a subtle pulse on the drop, while Reactor UV and glow accents increase visibility in dirty water or low light. Plus, it’s packed with Tracer Scent, a potent blend of shrimp and baitfish extracts that fires up even the most shut-down fish.

Rig it weedless with a worm hook, throw it on a light jighead, or fish it unweighted for a stealthy approach in tight spots. Hook alignment slots and belly dots make setup foolproof. Whether you’re targeting barra in the drains, flatties across the flats, or jacks deep in structure, the Cobra Shad gets bit.
