Savage Gear Cannibal Shad Softbait 6.8cm 3g Glitterbug

Savage Gear Cannibal Shad — Versatile Soft Plastic for All Predators

The Savage Gear Cannibal Shad is a reliable, fish-catching soft bait designed to tempt a wide range of predatory species. This 6.8 cm / 3 g Glitterbug version is a compact, lightweight option perfect for clear-water finesse fishing and smaller target species.

Natural Swimming Action That Triggers Strikes

The Cannibal Shad's body profile and tail geometry produce a lifelike, seductive action through the water column. Whether retrieved steadily, jigged, or worked with a drop shot, the lure moves with a convincing wobble that predators find hard to resist.

Soft Yet Durable Body

Constructed from a soft but resilient plastic compound, the Cannibal Shad holds its shape and tail action even after repeated strikes. This durability means fewer bait changes during a session, keeping your hook in the water longer.

Choose the Right Variant

The Cannibal Shad range covers four sizes and a broad colour selection to match conditions and target species. Select by the size and weight that suits your rig depth, current, and the predators you're after.

• 6.8 cm / 3 g — Glitterbug (current product): compact and light; ideal for perch, trout, and smaller zander on light jig heads in calm or clear water

• 6.8 cm / 3 g — YR Fluo: same compact size in a high-visibility fluorescent colour; good in off-colour or low-light conditions

• 6.8 cm / 3 g — Chartreuse: bright attractor colour for stained water or when predators are not responding to naturals

• 8 cm / 5 g — Blue Pearl: mid-size step-up for zander and larger perch; suits medium jig heads and deeper drops

• 8 cm / 5 g — Fluo Glow: mid-size with glow finish; effective in deep or very dark water

• 8 cm / 5 g — Perch: natural perch pattern; a go-to for mixed-predator venues

• 10 cm / 9 g — Perch: larger profile for pike and big zander; suits heavier jig heads and longer casts

• 12.5 cm / 20 g — Chartreuse: full-size, heavyweight option for pike and catfish; works on heavy Texas or jig rigs in deep water
