Savage Gear Barra Jerk 17.5cm 0.6–1.2m 29g Blue Mackerel

Savage Gear Barra Jerk — The Saltwater Jerkbait Built to Fool Big Predators

Small barracudas are a prime target for a wide range of ocean predators — and the Barra Jerk is designed to look and move exactly like one. At 17.5 cm and 29 g in the sinking version, this lure delivers precise depth control and a realistic profile that saltwater hunters simply can't ignore.

Long Casts, Stable Flight

A sophisticated weight transfer system using tungsten steel balls and fixed weights in key positions gives the Barra Jerk a long, stable trajectory even in windy coastal conditions. A magnet holder locks the weights in place during flight and releases them on entry, maintaining consistent action cast after cast.

Versatile Action That Adapts to Your Style

The pentagon lip generates a strong, flashy, lifelike swimming action across a wide range of retrieve styles. Twitch it with a high rod, jerk it with a low rod, burn it back fast, or crawl it home slowly — at every stop, the lure settles into a natural, horizontal hold position. The reinforced body shrugs off the teeth of barracuda, amberjack, bluefish, and other hard-fighting saltwater species.
