Savage Gear Barra Jerk 17.5cm 0.5–1m 25g Barracuda

Savage Gear Barra Jerk — The Specialist Saltwater Jerkbait That Mimics Baby Barracuda

Small barracuda are irresistible prey for snapper, bluefish, amberjack, leerfish, grouper — and even larger, cannibalistic barracuda. The Savage Gear Barra Jerk 17.5 cm in Barracuda colour is engineered specifically around this forage profile, giving you a purpose-built saltwater jerkbait that works from the first cast.

Casts Far, Lands True Every Time

A sophisticated weight-transfer system combining tungsten steel balls with fixed weights at key positions delivers a long, stable flight even into a headwind. A magnetic ball retainer snaps everything into position the moment the lure hits the water, so the action kicks in immediately and performs consistently in rough sea conditions.

Versatile Action That Works Any Way You Fish It

The new pentagon lip generates a strong, flashy, lifelike swimming action that adapts to your style. Twitch it high-rod, jerk it low-rod, burn it fast, or crawl it slow — the Barra Jerk responds to every input and hangs in a natural, horizontal position on the pause. The reinforced body handles the teeth of any species you're likely to hook.

Choose the Right Variant

The Barra Jerk is available in three sizes and two buoyancy types to match your target species, water depth, and rigging preference.

• Barra Jerk 17.5 cm 25 g Floating (Barracuda colour) — this lure | 3 treble hooks (#4) | depth 0.5–1 m | ideal for shallow reef edges, bays, and rocky coastlines targeting snapper, bluefish, and smaller barracuda; treble hook rig maximises hookup rate on short-striking fish

• Barra Jerk 17.5 cm 25 g Floating (Sardine, Bloody Pearl, Sayoris, Pennywise, Gold Anchovy colours) | 3 treble hooks or single hook (#4) | depth 0.5–1 m | same shallow-water application in alternative colour profiles

• Barra Jerk 17.5 cm 29 g Sinking (Joker Barra, Phantom Barracuda, Pink Belly Sardine, Pink Barracuda, Blue Mackerel, Green Barracuda) | 3 treble hooks or single hook (#4) | depth 0.6–1.2 m | allows a slower, deeper presentation; suited to fish holding slightly below the surface or in stronger current

• Barra Jerk 19 cm 25 g Floating (Sardine, Sayoris, Gold Anchovy, Bloody Pearl, Pennywise, Barracuda) | 3 treble hooks or single hook (#4) | depth 0.6–1.2 m | larger profile for bigger average fish; amberjack, leerfish, and bluefish

• Barra Jerk 19 cm 29 g Sinking (Pink Belly Sardine, Joker Barra, Blue Mackerel, Green Barracuda, Phantom Barracuda, Pink Barracuda) | single hook or treble hook (#4) | depth 0.7–1.4 m | step down through the water column or fish faster current seams

• Barra Jerk 21 cm 34 g Floating (Bloody Pearl, Pennywise, Gold Anchovy, Sardine, Barracuda, Sayoris) | single hook (#2) | depth 0.6–1.2 m | big-fish option for large barracuda, amberjack, and grouper; single hook suits heavier fluorocarbon rigs

• Barra Jerk 21 cm 38 g Slow Sinking (Joker Barra, Pink Belly Sardine, Pink Barracuda, Blue Mackerel, Phantom Barracuda, Green Barracuda) | single hook (#2) | depth 0.7–1.4 m | slow sink rate keeps the lure in the strike zone longer; stainless steel hardware option available
