Savage Gear Craft Shad 8.8cm 4.2g Firetiger

Savage Gear Craft Shad 8.8cm — Unmatched realism for selective predators

The Craft Shad 8.8cm in Firetiger delivers lifelike detail and vigorous action that fools even wary perch, pike, and zander in pressured freshwater.

Realistic soft eyes and hand-painted finish

Stare into the big, soft 3D eyes and you could mistake this lure for a live bleak. Inspired by natural baitfish, each Craft Shad is handcrafted with intricate detailing and premium painting that sets a new standard for soft plastics. Predators see prey, not plastic.

Slender profile with aggressive T-tail kick

The slim body profile cuts through current and reaches depth fast, while the long, slender tail bridge ends in a T-tail that paddles with a vigorous tight kick and roll on both retrieve and drop. This combination triggers strikes in challenging conditions where bulkier lures fail.

Choose the right variant

The Craft Shad range covers multiple situations—match size and colour to your target species and water clarity:
