The first time you launch a SHAD GT and like a lot of anglers you’ll say, “Wow, how it swims good” and that’s the best description you can give! Designing a shad that does not swim like other shads, a challenge met! Create a shad that simply takes fish, a bet paid! This high density silicone is injected at high pressure to respect the smallest details and to give the lure perfect flexibility while remaining resistant to predator teeth. The unique shape of its body gives it a rolling stroke on its horizontal axis, whatever the weight or the shape of the jig head.
From the first stress, this lure presents its faces alternately over a large lateral visual field. Its glossy surface finish will increase glare, and the new ultra-high-reflection pearlescent agents will only amplify the flash effect.
Its tail is designed to swim at the slightest request, vertical or horizontal. Its specificity is found during rapid acceleration or high recovery speed. The aerodynamics of the SHAD GT’s tail causes the end of the body to twist, creating even more turbulence when the tail is released. Reg...

The Delalande company, created by Mr Alain Delalande in 1979 was first specialized in the sale of mounted line for coarse fishing. Quickly, the first machines for making jig heads will be purchased and the first softbaits, imported from the United States, arrive on the French market thanks to Delalande.
In the following years, the “mounted line” part is sold in order to devote itself entirely to the jig head and softbait part, in particular with the purchase of a first machine to manufacture lures. The development of the Delalande material is then underway, and the first softbaits are emerging.
It was not until 1995 that the famous Sandra was born, an innovative and affordable lure and above all extremely effective. Today it is one of the softbaits known to all generations of lure fishermen, and is present in all boxes.
Over the years, it is as a family that the company has been managed, both by Alain and his wife, as well as by their children, Tony who manages the production and Sandrine all the management and marketing part.
