    Crème Lit’l Fishie Shad with New Change-Up Rig

    Author: Brad Wiegmann |

    Creme Lit'l Fishes Shad with the new Change-Up rigIt’s not just another swimbait. Sure it looks, swims, and acts like a swimbait, but it’s different. The difference is the Creme Lit’l Fishie Shad and Lit’l Fishie Perch with its innovative tail design makes the tail move back and forth like a real fish. The slim body reproduces a lifelike effect compared to most soft swimbaits that have a rounded body; in addition to being rigged with a Change-Up to keep its natural swimming action without restricting its movements. The Crème Lit’l Fishie Shad and Lit’l Fishie Perch are quickly becoming a favorite among anglers new or experienced with soft swimbaits because of its action and affordable price.

    Unlike many of the other soft swimbaits available, the Lit’l Fishie Shad with New Change-Up Rig and Lit’l Fishie Perch with New Change-Up Rig by Crème Lure Company (www.cremelure.com) comes pre-rigged  with the Change-Up and ready to fish right out of the package. That makes it convenient for anglers, but it’s really not why most anglers are buying them. The reason why anglers are buying them is its lifelike action when retrieved. The Lit’l Fishie produces this lifelike action by the two fins attached to the tail. One of these fins is slightly forward of the other allowing it to fill with water first. While one fin is filling with water this causes the tail to move in the opposite direction under pressure and releases its fill of water; the fin on the other side then fills up with water and under pressure releases its fill of water making the tail move back and forth giving it a lifelike swimming movement without making the head or body move giving it an unnatural appearance.

    The Lit’l Fishie Shad can be fished any place you would fish a swimbait. Unlike the smaller Lit’l Fishie Shad and Lit’l Fishie Perch, the Lit’l Fishie Shad with New Change-Up Rig and Lit’l Fishie Perch with New Change-Up Rig are only available in a extra large 4-inch version. It has a large profile from the sides, but continues to have a narrow realistic body width of a shad or perch.

    Productive area for catching fish on the  Lit’l Fishie Shad with New Change-Up Rig and Lit’l Fishie Shad with New Change-Up Rig is around boat docks, large flats, points, humps, schooling fish, aquatic grass, brush piles, and lay downs. Any place you would cast a spinnerbait, topwater, or crankbait. Due to its size, anglers can expect to catch mostly big fish on it.
    The key to this lure is utilizing the Change-Up Rig by Crème Lures. A Change-Up Rig was designed to attach to any Creme Lit'l Fishes Shad with the new Change-Up rigswimbait and fits the Lit’l Fishie Shad with New Change-Up Rig and Lit’l Fishie Perch with New Change-Up Rig perfect; although, it can be used on any swimbait or lure. To rig it on to a soft swimbait screw the hook assembly into the nose of the bait. Insert the “L” end of the hook assembly into the belly of the bait. Attach your line to the front eyelet. The hook that comes with the Lit’l Fishie can be used with the hook points tucked under the plastic lure body to reduce or eliminate getting snagged. It can be reversed allowing the hook points to face downward to increase the hookup ratio. A treble hook can be used instead of the hook that comes with the lure for open water situations.

    It’s just not another swimbait, but you will have to try it out yourself to see. The large profile makes it a trophy hunters dream for catching that fish of a lifetime and its unique swimming action is sure to fool even the wisest of fish.
