Savage Gear 3D Herring Shad V2 17.5cm 35g Black Gold

Savage Gear 3D Herring Shad V2 17.5cm 35g Black Gold — hyper-realistic paddle tail for pike and predators

The Savage Gear 3D Herring Shad V2 in Black Gold brings a lifelike herring profile to freshwater predator fishing. This 17.5 cm, 35 g paddle tail soft bait delivers a rolling and kicking action that imitates wounded baitfish, making it ideal for pike, perch, and zander.

3D scanned realism triggers strikes

Every detail—from the photo-printed Black Gold finish to the soft eyes and articulated belly fins—is based on a 3D scan of a real Baltic herring. The broad, flat flanks flash as the lure rolls through the water column, while the paddle tail kicks out a hypnotic rhythm. A glass rattle housed in the tail adds acoustic attraction, and the super-soft PVC body is infused with anise scent to provoke aggressive takes.

Built-in rigging flexibility

The belly slot allows you to snug in a stinger rig for a streamlined, weedless presentation. Whether you're fishing shallow structure, deep drop-offs, or mid-water, the design keeps the hook concealed until the strike. The soft material and balanced weight ensure natural movement even at slow retrieve speeds.
