Savage Gear Flying Minnow 5g 7cm Firetiger

Savage Gear Flying Minnow — Trigger strikes with erratic darting action

The Flying Minnow is a ready-to-fish darting lure that provokes even the most cautious predators. With subtle rod taps, this 7 cm minnow darts left to right through the water column, imitating a fleeing baitfish desperate to escape.

Erratic zigzag action triggers aggressive strikes

The unique darting mechanics create an unpredictable zigzag swimming pattern that predators find irresistible. Short twitches send the lure shooting sideways, mimicking injured or panicked prey. This makes the Flying Minnow highly effective when fish ignore conventional retrieves.

Ready to fish with spare body included

Each lure arrives pre-rigged with an ultra-sharp black nickel hook (size #1) and includes a replacement soft body. The 5 g sinking design reaches depths of 0.8–3.5 m, covering the strike zone for perch, zander, pike, and sea bass. UV-active Firetiger colours enhance visibility in stained water and low-light conditions.
