Savage Gear Cast Hacker Crankbaits 13cm 2–50m 93g Bloody Anchovy Loose Scales

Savage Gear Cast Hacker 13cm XS – extreme-range saltwater pencil for deep-water predators

The Cast Hacker 13cm 93g XS in Bloody Anchovy Loose Scales delivers extraordinary casting distance and a deadly fast-sinking action for aggressive saltwater fishing. Built for inshore and offshore anglers targeting tuna, grouper, snapper, and amberjack, this through-wired longcast pencil reaches feeding frenzies from extreme range and punches down to 50m depths with ease.

Launches up to 120m and dives fast to 50m

The XS (Extra Sinking) variant features ultra-compact tungsten weighting that enables casts exceeding 120 metres while delivering a rapid "dead fish" fall that reaches deep spots quickly, even in strong currents. From shore you'll cover vast distances and search the entire water column; from the boat you can cast into distant surface action and work the lure through multiple depth zones on the retrieve.

Aggressive action triggers strikes in tough conditions

The VMS (Vivid Movement System) creates an erratic, lifelike action on the fall and retrieve. Work the 13cm XS model with hard twitches for explosive skipping and sliding – the fast sink rate and aggressive response excel when fish are active and feeding in choppy water or windy weather. The built-in rattle adds acoustic attraction in murky conditions or low light.

Choose the right variant

The Cast Hacker series offers three lengths and two sink rates to match your fishing situation:

• 9.5cm FS (26g) – slower vivid fall, 1–10m, ideal for calmer conditions and selective fish near the surface

• 9.5cm XS (32g) – fast dead-fish fall, 1.5–15m, aggressive twitching for active fish

• 11.5cm FS (44g) – slower vivid fall, 1–15m, mid-size baitfish imitation for mixed conditions

• 11.5cm XS (63g) – fast dead-fish fall, 2–30m, reaches mid-depth zones quickly in current

• 13cm FS (73g) – slower vivid fall, 1.5–25m, works with slower twitches for cautious predators

• 13cm XS (93g, this model) – fastest dead-fish fall, 2–50m, maximum casting distance and depth penetration for serious offshore work
