Product Details and Uses

Tronixpro Shad Rig – Premium Ready-Made Flying Collar Rig

When boat fishing over deep-water wrecks and rocky reefs, the flying collar rig is the undisputed king for targeting predatory species. The Tronixpro Shad Rig is a professionally tied, ready-made version of this classic setup, designed to let you attach your favorite artificial lures and get your gear down into the strike zone with absolute confidence.

Built entirely from premium, high-tensile Tronixpro components, this rig features a long, ultra-clean 30lb clear monofilament trace body. The extended length of a flying collar trace is vital; it ensures your artificial shad, jelly worm, or sandeel swims naturally and entirely unhindered far behind your heavy boom and sinker. By eliminating the hassle of tying complex, long-trace setups on a moving boat, this pre-tied rig saves you valuable fishing time, keeping your lures in the water where the apex predators feed.

Where to Use the Tronixpro Shad Rig

Offshore Wreck Drifting: The ultimate setup for working deep-water shipwrecks. As the boat drifts over the structure, this rig presents your shad in a perfectly straight, natural line that big fish cannot resist.
Deep Reef Jigging: Perfect for working high-relief rocky reefs and pinnacles where predatory fish patrol the kelp lines and drop-offs looking for passing baitfish.
Targeting Specimen Predators: Specifically designed to fool visual, fast-moving sight hunters such as large Pollack, Coalfish, Bass, and heavy Cod.

Pro Tip from the Gerry’s Fishing Team

The secret to mastering the flying collar method with the Tronixpro Shad Rig lies entirely in your retrieve speed. Once your heavy lead hits the seabed over the wreck, immediately engagement your reel and begin a incredibly slow, ultra-smooth upward wind—aiming for roughly 20 to 30 turns of the reel handle before dropping back down.

Predatory pollack will track the pulsing movement of your artificial lure as it climbs away from the wreck. When a fish hits, do not strike! Striking will pull the lure right out of the fish’s mouth. Instead, simply keep winding at the exact same steady pace. The fish will turn on the lure, dive back toward the wreck, and the 30lb trace will smoothly set the hook itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this rig come with an artificial shad included?

No. This is a dedicated pre-tied trace rig body, allowing you the total flexibility to tie on your own preferred size, color, and brand of artificial shad or soft plastic lure depending on what the fish are feeding on that day.

Is a 30lb trace strong enough for large wreck fish?

Yes, absolutely. A 30lb breaking strain offers the perfect balance for wreck drifting. It is strong enough to handle hard-fighting, double-figure pollack and cod, yet supple and thin enough to allow your artificial lure to twist, turn, and swim with maximum life-like action.

How do I attach my weight to this setup?

This rig is designed to be used in conjunction with a plastic or metal sliding boom. Your mainline runs to the boom (which holds your heavy lead), and the Tronixpro Shad Rig attaches directly to the trailing end of the boom swivel to keep the long hook length from tangling with your sinker during the descent.

Can I use this rig with live bait?

While it is primarily engineered for working artificial soft plastics like shads and worms on a steady retrieve, it can also be used to present light, active live baits like sandeels when drifting over clean sandbanks or reef edges.
