How To Fish DOA Shrimp

A D.O.A. Shrimp is an artificial shrimp lure to consider where local fish are feeding on shrimp. It is an alternative to natural bait, not a guarantee that every fish taking live shrimp will take the lure.

For a straightforward starting presentation, choose the complete rigged lure and attach it to an appropriate leader. Work it slowly through the area you are fishing, with short movements and pauses. Watch how the lure swims close to shore before making a longer cast. Use a presentation and casting load your rod can handle.

The linked option is a 3-inch D.O.A. Shrimp in Glow Goldrush. D.O.A. offers both rigged lures and replacement bodies; buy the version you intend to use. The former link led to spare bodies, which are not the same as complete lures. Confirm the hooks, weights, color and quantity included in the selected listing.

Do not add a heavy sinker automatically or assume you must cut and re-rig the lure backward. Start with the maker’s rigged configuration and change it only for a specific presentation you understand.
