Product Details and Uses

Sawamura One Up Shad 2″ – 5.3cm: The Small Giant of Finesse

When the fishing is tough and predators are dialed into tiny “fry” or hatch-of-the-year baitfish, the Sawamura One Up Shad 2″ is the undisputed master. At Gerry’s Fishing, we’ve seen this lure gain a legendary reputation across both fresh and saltwater. While its larger brothers are famous for pike and zander, this 2-inch (5.3cm) version is a “finesse” powerhouse that predators simply cannot ignore.

The secret to the One Up Shad’s success lies in its unique jointed body design. The narrowed mid-section acts as a hinge, allowing the lure to produce a fantastic, high-frequency swimming action that starts at the slowest of speeds. Whether you are “micro-jigging” or drop-shotting, the movement is so natural it often fools the most pressured fish in the water.

Formidable Attraction & Design

Trump Attractant & Scent: Every Sawamura lure is infused with their proprietary “Trump” scent and attractant. This isn’t just a surface coating; it’s cooked into the plastic to trigger aggressive feeding instincts and ensure fish hold on longer after the strike.
Segmented Body Geometry: The “hinge” in the middle of the lure allows the head and tail to move independently, creating a seductive “S-wave” vibration that mimics the frantic swimming of a small fish.
Precision Versatility: The 2-inch profile is a universal snack. It is equally effective on a light jig head, a drop-shot rig, or a micro-Texas rig for fishing in “snaggy” areas.
Super-Soft Compound: The plastic is incredibly supple, ensuring the paddle tail kicks even when the lure is falling vertically through the water column.

Where to Use the One Up Shad 2″

The 5.3cm model is a specialist tool for targeting a wide variety of species. The Gerry’s team recommends it for:

Street Fishing & LRF: A staple for Light Rock Fishing (LRF) in harbors and marinas. It is deadly for wrasse, pollock, and even larger pouting or poor cod.
Freshwater Perch & Chub: When fishing canals or small rivers, the One Up Shad 2″ is the perfect imitation of a small minnow or stickleback. Use it on a 1.5g–3g jig head for the ultimate finesse presentation.
Finesse Zander Tactics: In very clear water or high-pressure venues, “downsizing” to a 2-inch shad can often trigger bites from zander that are ignoring larger 4-inch lures.
Estuary “Schoolie” Bass: When baby bass are feeding on “whitebait” or tiny shrimp in the estuaries, this 1.5g lure is one of the few imitations that perfectly matches the hatch.

Gerry’s Verdict:

The Sawamura One Up Shad 2″ may be small, but its catching power is immense. It is a “must-have” for any angler’s finesse box, offering a level of scent and action that cheaper imitations simply can’t match
