The CWC Pig Shad Tournament
The CWC Pig Shad Tournament in 18 cm is a shad created to have the ideal size to be likely to catch the greatest number of pike (small & large) in competition! Inspired by the famous jerkbait "The Pig", this soft lure is a true pike and zander magnet. It features an enticing rolling action and its head sways slightly from side to side on the retrieve, while its tail moves rather slowly. It is one of the reference soft lures that Pierre Monjarret uses for guiding as well as in competition.

Tips from our team of enthusiasts
The rig
The Pig Shad Tournament can be used in the classic way mounted on a jig head, such as the BKK Round Elite Classic Bait Keeper, a shallow rig like the CWC Pro Stinger Stainless Steel, a screw-in head like the BFT Flexhead Pike, or a Texas hook like the Owner BEAST Hook.
It can also be used as a trailer behind a Miuras Mouse.
The color
When it comes to color, the starting point is the environment. The clearer it is, the more you should use natural colors; the more turbid it is, the more you should use flashy or dark shades, even going as far as black. This is a base that should be adjusted day by day.
Our team has a real soft spot for two colors
- 145: for fishing in clear water,
- MN2: for fishing in stained water at low light and at night.
