Savage Gear Gobster Shad 11.5cm 16g Clear Water Mix

Savage Gear Gobster Shad 11.5cm – Goby Realism That Triggers Strikes

The Savage Gear Gobster Shad in 11.5cm delivers a flat-profile goby imitation with an aggressive kicking paddle tail that creates intense turbulence and vibration. This 5-pack in Clear Water Mix is optimized for targeting perch, pike, and zander in clear freshwater conditions.

Flat Profile Creates Maximum Water Displacement

The Gobster Shad's compressed body design mimics the natural silhouette of a goby while generating oversized water movement. The paddle tail delivers a powerful kicking action on the retrieve and fall, sending out vibrations that predators detect from distance. Crafted details and twin/triple injection colors add lifelike realism.

Versatile Rigging for Every Situation

A weedless slot along the back accepts offset and EWG (Extra Wide Gap) hooks for snag-free presentations through vegetation and structure. The body also mounts cleanly on jig heads for open-water fishing. This rigging flexibility lets you adapt to different cover types and fishing styles without changing lures.

Choose the Right Variant

The Gobster Shad is available in three sizes and multiple colors to match forage and water clarity:

• 7.5cm (5g) – Ideal for perch and small zander in shallow water or pressured fisheries; works well on light jig heads and finesse rigs

• 9cm (9g) – All-round size for perch, zander, and pike; balances casting distance with natural presentation

• 11.5cm (16g) – Best for larger pike and zander in deeper water or current; pairs with heavier jig heads and EWG hooks for weedless applications

• Clear Water Mix – Natural translucent tones for clear conditions

• Dark Water Mix – High-contrast colors for stained or low-light situations

• Smelt, Holographic Baitfish – Baitfish imitations for match-the-hatch scenarios

• Green Pearl Yellow, Chartreuse Pumpkin, Firecracker, Motor Oil UV – Reaction colors for triggering aggressive strikes
