Savage Gear Gobster Shad 9cm — irresistible goby action that triggers strikes

This flat-profile shad mimics a goby with a super-kicking paddle tail that creates massive turbulence and vibration. The 9 cm size delivers strong visual presence and swimming action for perch, zander, and pike.

Flat profile with strike-triggering details

The Gobster Shad's compressed body shape replicates the silhouette of a bottom-dwelling goby, a natural prey item for many predators. Crafted details and twin or triple injection colours add realism, while the integrated scent further stimulates strikes. The unique paddle tail generates a powerful kicking action that pushes water and announces the lure's presence even in murky conditions.

Weedless-ready and extremely versatile

A dedicated back slot accepts offset and EWG hooks for snag-free fishing through heavy cover, and the body is equally compatible with traditional jig heads. Switch between weedless, weighted, or open-water presentations without carrying multiple lure styles—simply change your hook configuration to suit the structure and depth you're targeting.

Choose the right variant

The Gobster Shad is available in three sizes and a wide range of proven colours to match water clarity and forage:

7.5 cm / 5 g — finesse option for pressured perch, small zander, and ultra-light techniques
9 cm / 9 g (Smelt) — all-round size for perch, zander, and pike in rivers, canals, and stillwaters; natural smelt pattern excels in clear to lightly stained water
11.5 cm / 16 g — larger profile for pike and big zander; heavier weight reaches deeper zones and casts farther

Colours include Clear Water Mix, Dark Water Mix, Green Pearl Yellow, Holo Baitfish, Firecracker, Motor Oil UV, Chartreuse Pumpkin, and Smelt for light-coloured forage imitation.
