Savage Gear Flying Minnow 5g 7cm Clear Roach

Savage Gear Flying Minnow — Trigger Even the Wariest Predators

The Flying Minnow 5g 7cm Clear Roach is a ready-to-fish darting lure that provokes strikes from cautious perch, zander, pike, and even seabass. With tiny twitches, it shoots left and right through the water column, imitating a panicked baitfish trying to escape.

Unique Darting Action

A few light rod taps send this minnow zigzagging unpredictably. The erratic left-to-right movement mimics fleeing prey and triggers aggressive reaction strikes, making it especially effective when predators ignore conventional retrieves.

Pre-Rigged and Ready

Each pack includes one fully rigged lure with an ultra-sharp black nickel hook plus a spare body, so you can replace damaged soft bodies in seconds and keep fishing. The UV-active Clear Roach pattern reflects light naturally and remains visible even in stained water or low light.

Choose the Right Variant

Match your lure to depth, species, and conditions:
