Savage Gear Collapser 18cm 27g Blue Thunder

Savage Gear Collapser 18cm 27g — engineered for superior hook-up ratio

The Collapser swimbait combines ultra-slow swimming action with a clever collapse mechanism that folds the tail downward on strikes, keeping it clear of your treble hook for more landed fish.

Built for forward-facing sonar and ultra-slow retrieves

The scoop-shaped paddle tail generates a rolling, double-kicking action even at the slowest speeds imaginable. Super-soft PVC material ensures the lure comes alive with minimal movement, ideal for forward-facing sonar (FFS) techniques and pelagic casting where you need to keep the bait in the strike zone longer. The integrated glass rattle adds audible attraction that triggers bites from zander and pike.

Collapse design maximizes hook-ups

Special side-angled notches serve two purposes: they create extra vibration in the water, and more importantly, they allow the tail to collapse downward when a fish strikes. This angled fold prevents the tail from fouling the treble hook, directly improving your hook-up percentage on aggressive takes.

Choose the right variant

The Collapser series is available in three sizes to match your target species and conditions. Collapser 14cm (12g, 3 pieces) suits perch and smaller zander in pressured waters or when fish are feeding on small baitfish. Collapser 18cm (27g, 2 pieces) — the current model — is the all-rounder for zander and pike in most freshwater situations, offering versatile casting distance and profile. Collapser 22cm (44g, 2 pieces) targets specimen pike and large zander, especially in deeper water or when big prey fish dominate the food chain. All sizes share the same collapse mechanism and swimming action.
