Full Product Description

Mudminnow Flash – 4.5” Paddle Tail Soft Plastic

Model: Dirty Shad

The Mudminnow Flash is a 4.5-inch paddle tail soft plastic designed for versatility across all inshore fishing conditions. Its realistic baitfish profile and responsive paddle tail provide smooth swimming action at both slow and fast retrieves.

On a slow roll, the Mudminnow Flash maintains a steady tail kick, perfect for cold water, pressured fish, or shallow marsh fishing. Speed it up and the paddle drives harder, pushing more water to trigger reaction strikes near structure, drains, or open flats.

The color pattern—watermelon top with blue flake accents and a pearl white bottom—offers natural contrast and flash that stands out in dirty or clear water. Finished with a sweet watermelon scent, it encourages fish to bite and stay engaged longer.

Made from extremely durable saltwater-grade plastic, the Mudminnow Flash is built to withstand repeated strikes from trout, redfish, flounder, and snook without tearing.
