  FOX PREDATOR LURES - CHUBBY SHADS
  Pike fishing is becoming highly sophisticated especially in the way that we present baits and make them more visible and tempting to pike, in demanding and difficult situations. The products featured on these pages are for enhancing rigs and baits, and allow the angler himself to exercise a degree of imagination and ingenuity, in tailoring his rigs to meet the challenges he faces. It is difficult to now envisage a pike fishing situation that cannot be covered using Fox products. Even the smallest and simplest item has been fully scrutinised and tested for functionality and reliability, in what is probably the toughest branch of our sport when it comes to tackle testing. This range of accessories will undoubtedly inspire confidence and encourage and enable innovative anglers to employ tactics that will put more pike safely on the bank for them.
The Fox Chubby Shads are available in six colours. Each has been carefully selected following extensive trials to find the ultimate fish catching patterns. Ideally one should have a selection of sizes and colours because predators can sometimes be particular in their choice but with a little practice you will be able to pick exactly the right lure to suit the species and water conditions. If you are not too experienced yet, don't worry. Most times predators will attack a wide range of patterns. If you are unsure where to start here's a guide to get you off the mark and in business with this most absorbing style of lure fishing.

The Final Choice
Make allowances for any current and bottom weed. Consider that the fish might be feeding off the bottom and try vertical jigging (if boat fishing) or a straight retrieve at various depths. Remember that the deeper you fish, the more weight you will need to stay in contact with the lure and feel the bite. This guide will get you started, By simply bouncing these jigs along the bottom with gentle upstrokes of the rod tip you will catch fish. Perfect your technique through practice and discover which patterns work best in your local waters and your catches will multiply. This style of fishing is rapidly developing. Make sure you get the best from your lures by selecting the correct rods, reels and lines and working on your technique. Make sure not to miss our latest catalogue with comprehensive sections on jigging tackle.
