Savage Gear Craft Bleak Clam 8.5cm 4.2g Green Pearl Yellow

Savage Gear Craft Bleak 8.5cm – realistic bleak imitation for versatile predator fishing

The Craft Bleak in 8.5cm and 4.2g combines a detailed bleak profile with a strike-triggering flanking action. Rig it on jig heads or EWG hooks and target perch, zander, pike, and trout in both still water and strong currents.

Slim profile for fast retrieves and strong currents

The narrow body design lets you fish quickly through the water column without sacrificing hook-up rate. Whether you're working current seams or casting into fast flows, the Craft Bleak maintains its kicking action and ensures reliable hook penetration.

Unmissable flanking and kicking action

The paddle tail produces an irresistible flank-and-kick movement on both retrieve and drop. This dual-phase action triggers strikes from hesitant fish and makes the lure effective across varied retrieval speeds and techniques.

Choose the right variant

The Craft Bleak series offers three sizes and ten colour options to match water clarity and target species:

• 7cm / 2.5g – perch and trout in streams and shallow zones; ideal for light jig heads and finesse presentations

• 8.5cm / 4.2g (this model in Green Pearl Yellow) – all-round size for perch, zander, and trout in clear to slightly stained water; fits standard jig heads 3–7g

• 10cm / 6.8g – larger perch, zander, and pike in open water and moderate current; pairs with jig heads 5–10g

• 12cm / 11.8g – pike and big zander in deep water, strong current, or when targeting larger baitfish; use jig heads 8–15g or EWG hooks 3/0–5/0

Clear-water colours (Bleak, Holo Baitfish, Roach, Motor Oil UV, Green Pearl Yellow) suit gin-clear lakes and slow rivers. Dark-water colours (Firecracker, Lemon Glow Firetail, White Pearl Flash, Olive Hot Orange, Chartreuse Pumpkin) excel in stained or turbid conditions.
