Savage Gear Deviator Swim 12.5cm 50g Roach Slow Sinking

Savage Gear Deviator Swim 12.5 cm – triggers bites when nothing else works

The Deviator Swim glide bait combines an eye-catching sliding action with extreme durability. Its lateral side-to-side movement on steady retrieves and erratic flashes on twitches attract pike and other predators even in pressured waters.

Sliding action that stands out

The 12.5 cm Deviator Swim delivers an aggressive side-shifting swim pattern that mimics a fleeing or disoriented baitfish. On the twitch, it produces sharp lateral flashes that trigger reaction strikes. The built-in rattle adds acoustic attraction, making it effective in stained water or low-light conditions.

Built to handle brutal strikes

Thru-wire construction runs the full length of the lure, ensuring it survives violent attacks from large pike, zander, and perch. The body withstands repeated impacts against structure, while the two SGY 1X BN treble hooks (size 1) provide secure hook-ups. Long-casting design lets you cover water efficiently and reach distant holding zones.

Choose the right variant

The Deviator Swim is available in three sizes and multiple colour patterns to match your target species and conditions:

• 10.5 cm / 35 g – ideal for perch, small pike, and zander in canals, rivers, and shallow bays; fits lighter jerkbait rods

• 12.5 cm / 50 g (this model in Roach) – versatile all-rounder for pike and zander in lakes, reservoirs, and medium rivers; works with medium-heavy spinning gear

• 14 cm / 70 g – for targeting large pike in deep water, open reservoirs, and big rivers; requires heavy jerkbait or casting rods

Colour options across the range include Roach, Pike, Firetiger, Golden Ambulance, Lemon Roach, Chub, Green Silver, Dirty Roach, Chrome Perch, and Blue Chrome. Match local forage or choose high-contrast patterns for murky water.
