Savage Gear Ned Dragon Tail Slug 8.8cm 4g Bleak

Savage Gear Ned Dragon Tail Slug — finesse power for perch and bass

The Savage Gear Ned Dragon Tail Slug in Bleak brings finesse fishing to the next level. This hyper-ribbed, floating creature bait is purpose-built for NED rigging and Cheburashka jigs, standing upright on the bottom and pulsing with the slightest rod twitch to trigger even cautious predators.

Lifelike micro action triggers bites

The heavily ribbed body creates subtle vibrations and micro movements that imitate distressed prey. Made from super-soft Duratech material and salt-infused for added attraction, the Ned Dragon Tail Slug floats tail-up, giving you a vertical presentation that perch and bass find irresistible. The built-in rattle chamber with removable glass rattle adds acoustic appeal when you need it.

Weedless rigging for snag-prone water

Rig this versatile bait on a NED jig head for open water or thread it onto an EWG (Extra Wide Gap) hook for weedless presentations in heavy cover. The floating buoyancy lifts the tail off the bottom, mimicking feeding baitfish while keeping you snag-free in weedy or rocky zones.

Choose the right variant

The Savage Gear Ned Dragon Tail Slug is available in three sizes and multiple color patterns to match your conditions:

• 7.2 cm / 3 g — small finesse profile for ultra-light NED rigs; ideal for cautious perch and panfish in clear, pressured water or colder months (Bleak, Green Pumpkin, Watermelon Red, Chartreuse Pumpkin, Clear Motor Oil, Clear Water Mix, Dark Water Mix)

• 8.8 cm / 4 g — mid-size all-rounder for perch, bass, and zander; works in both shallow and mid-depth zones with NED heads or light Cheburashka jigs (Bleak, Green Pumpkin, Watermelon Red, Chartreuse Pumpkin, Clear Motor Oil, Clear Water Mix, Dark Water Mix)

• 10 cm / 5.5 g — larger profile for bigger bass and inshore species; effective in deeper water, current, or when targeting aggressive fish (Bleak, Green Pumpkin, Watermelon Red, Chartreuse Pumpkin, Clear Motor Oil, Clear Water Mix, Dark Water Mix)
