The Tiemco Soft Shell Cicada is by far the most popular cicada imitation lure on the market.
You need only ask any serious bass angler and they will say the same.
This particular lure is a soft foam 40mm bodied cicada imitation, designed to catch a number of both salt and freshwater species, including bass, estuary perch, bream and trout, to name a few.
The soft foam body is super buoyant, and its feel is realistic and natural, making the fish hit the lure a number of times if they don’t hook up the first time.
This can be the difference between catching fish and not catching fish.
On the cast when they hit the water, they sound like the real thing falling out of a tree.
The foam is super durable and, with its soft lifelike wings and natural colour range, this lure can be slow rolled or twitched and paused across the surface, making it look, sound and feel like the real thing.
The number one cicada lure on the market, the Tiemco Soft Shell Cicada is a must-have lure for any keen topwater fisho.
