Savage Gear Cannibal Shad 15cm 33g Motor O UV

Savage Gear Cannibal Shad 15cm 33g Motor Oil UV – Proven paddle tail with UV attraction

One of the most popular paddle tail shads for decades, the Cannibal Shad combines an irresistibly lively action with remarkable versatility. This 15 cm Motor Oil UV version features updated triple-injection colours with UV-active elements and built-in scent to trigger strikes from a wide range of predators.

Lively action on drop and retrieve

The Cannibal Shad's distinctive paddle tail delivers an amazingly natural swimming motion whether you're letting it sink or cranking it back. The soft body kicks on the drop, imitating wounded prey, then maintains an enticing wobble during steady retrieves. This dual-action performance makes it effective across multiple techniques—vertical jigging, cast-and-retrieve, or slow-rolling along structure.

Versatile predator magnet

Built to catch perch, trout, pike, zander, catfish, and more, this shad adapts to your target species and conditions. The Motor Oil UV colour combines a translucent motor oil base with UV-reflective elements that glow under ultraviolet light, increasing visibility in deeper water or low-light periods. Strike-triggering scent is infused into the soft plastic to extend bite windows.
