NOMAD LIVE OPS COBRA SHAD LURE 4.5 Inch – ARKSH – Arkansas Shiner

The Nomad Live Ops Cobra Shad Adjusta-Ball Soft Plastic Lure 4.5 Inch is a next-generation finesse bait built to deliver explosive reaction strikes from predatory fish. Featuring Nomad’s patent-pending Adjusta-Ball internal tungsten system, this soft plastic allows anglers to customise its fall rate and angle—giving you complete control over presentation and visibility, especially when fishing with live sonar.

At 4.5 inches, the Cobra Shad offers a larger profile perfect for targeting big barra, XL flathead, mangrove jack, and other aggressive estuary and impoundment species. The flared cobra-style wings create an upward “jump” motion with every twitch, while the super-thin tail and rippled belly fins add natural flick, vibration, and turbulence—mimicking a fleeing baitfish to perfection.

Built from ultra-tough Titan RX elastomer, this soft plastic stretches under load yet returns to shape for repeated use. Its Reactor UV glow system and Tracer scent infusion make it highly visible and highly effective in dirty water, low light, or deep structure.

Whether rigged weedless, on a jighead, or unweighted, the Cobra Shad 4.5” gives you unmatched versatility and strike-triggering action.
