Sawamura One Up Shad 3″ – 6.8cm: The Multi-Species Versatility King

The Sawamura One Up Shad 3″ is arguably the most versatile size in the entire One Up range. At Gerry’s Fishing, we consider the 6.8cm model an essential “all-rounder” that bridges the gap between ultra-light LRF and standard predator tactics. Famous across Europe, this lure is treated by fish as natural bait, making it a primary choice for anglers who need to catch a variety of species in a single session.

The “3-inch” is legendary for its low-speed activation. Thanks to the signature Sawamura “hinged” body and incredibly supple material, the tail kicks and vibrates the moment it hits the water. Whether you are targeting perch in a canal or sea bass in an estuary, this lure provides a constant, seductive action that predators find impossible to ignore.

Key Features & Technology

Trump Attractant & Scent: Infused with the proprietary “Trump” scent, this lure appeals to a predator’s olfactory senses. The attractant is baked into the material, ensuring it remains potent and keeps fish holding on longer for a more secure hook-up.
Segmented “Hinge” Design: The narrowed mid-section acts as a pivot, allowing the head and tail to move with independent rhythms. This creates a complex vibration that mimics the frantic pulse of a small prey fish.
Low-Inertia Swimming: Engineered to work at extremely slow recovery speeds, making it ideal for “slow-rolling” near the bottom or vertical jigging in deep water.
High-Grade Material: The plastic is soft enough for maximum action but durable enough to handle multiple strikes from aggressive predators.

Where to Use the One Up Shad 3″

The 6.8cm size is a “universal snack.” The Gerry’s team recommends it for:

Specimen Perch Fishing: This is the gold-standard size for large perch. The 4g weight provides a significant enough meal to attract quality fish while remaining small enough for them to inhale easily.
Light Rock Fishing (LRF) & HRF: A devastating lure for saltwater species. Use it for targeting ballan wrasse, pollack, and pouting in and around rocky structures and piers.
Estuary “Schoolie” Bass: When sea bass are feeding on small fry or shrimp in the shallows, the 3-inch profile matches the hatch perfectly.
Versatile Rigging: It performs exceptionally well on a standard jig head, a drop-shot rig, or a “Texas Light” setup for fishing through weed and snags.

Gerry’s Verdict:

The Sawamura One Up Shad 3″ is a professional-grade lure that offers incredible catching power across a huge range of species.4 It is one of those rare lures that can save a difficult day by triggering bites from almost anything that swims. With 8 lures per pack, it’s a high-value addition to any lure box
