Savage Gear Craft Bleak Clam 8.5cm 4.2g Lemon Glow Firetail

Savage Gear Craft Bleak 8.5cm — perfectly balanced for perch and zander in current

The Craft Bleak in 8.5cm and 4.2g delivers a slim profile that cuts through fast water and strong currents while maintaining an irresistible flanking and kicking action. Based on the body shape of a bleak minnow with meticulous detail, this swimbait is designed for jig heads and EWG weedless rigging.

Slim profile for fast retrieves and current fishing

The streamlined body slices through water with minimal resistance, making it ideal for fishing in rivers and canals where flow is strong. This design ensures the lure tracks true even at higher speeds and keeps working depth consistent, while the shape still delivers excellent hook-up rates.

Unmissable action on retrieve and drop

The paddle tail produces a pronounced flanking and kicking motion both when you're actively retrieving and when the lure is falling. This dual-phase action triggers strikes from predators at every stage of your presentation, whether you're working it aggressively or letting it flutter down on a slack line.

Choose the right variant

The Craft Bleak comes in three sizes and a range of colours matched to water clarity. Lemon Glow Firetail (this variant) is part of the murky water selection alongside Firecracker, White Pearl Flash, Olive Hot Orange, and Chartreuse Pumpkin. For clear water, choose Bleak, Holo Baitfish, Roach, Motoroil UV, or Green Pearl Yellow.
