A bright white shad head paired with a clean nickel blade defines the visual profile of this Strike King Rocket Shad Spinnerbait. Measuring 3" (7.5 cm) and weighing in at 1/2oz (14 g), this compact lure carries the product code 8036. The white painted head features a distinct black-and-silver eye and a subtle red detail at the gill, showcasing the classic manufacturing standards of Strike King's USA-based production. A white and silver silicone skirt is secured with a robust black collar, matching the reflective properties of the single nickel-plated blade. The hardware consists of a stainless steel wire frame and a high-quality ball-bearing swivel to support component rotation during a retrieve. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, showing excellent preservation across its painted surfaces and metallic finishes. Anglers typically utilize this specific design for long-distance casting into schooling fish.
