Where the Beauty Shad puts 10.5g into a 75mm body, the Flippy Shad packs 12g into 70mm, and that difference is the whole point of the lure. More mass in a shorter body means it leaves the rod harder and flies further, holds its line into a headwind, and can be cast accurately at a distant snag on light gear. It also means less spare buoyancy, so on the pause it eases upward slowly rather than popping to the surface — the lure hangs in the strike zone instead of leaving it. The front diving lip pulls it under on the retrieve and the balanced body produces a compact, tight wobble rather than a wide roll. An internal rattle adds sound and vibration, which is the other thing the Beauty Shad does not have, and makes this the better pick in stained water, after rain and in low light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e70mm \/ 12g floating body — short and dense for casting distance and wind penetration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal rattle system creates sound and vibration for stained or low-light water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront diving lip guides the lure beneath the surface on the retrieve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBalanced body produces a consistent, tight wobbling action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRises slowly on the pause and stays in the strike zone longer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReflective scale finish produces flashes on every change of direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProminent eye gives predators a clear strike target\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo sharp treble hooks for side and rear strikes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Fish It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong-cast search\u003c\/strong\u003e — Use the casting weight for what it is worth.
