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

Savage Gear Barra Jerk 17.5 cm — Saltwater Jerkbait That Thinks Like a Baitfish

The Barra Jerk (Barracuda Jerkbait) mimics a juvenile barracuda to the last scale — and that makes it irresistible to snappers, bluefish, amberjacks, leerfish, groupers, and even cannibalistic adult barracudas. At 17.5 cm and 25 g in a floating configuration, this is the compact, fast-casting option in the Barra Jerk range.

Casts Far, Flies Straight

A sophisticated weight transfer system using tungsten steel balls and fixed weights in key positions delivers long, stable casts even into a headwind. A magnet holder keeps the weights locked at rest, then releases them on the forward cast — so you lose nothing in distance or accuracy when conditions get rough.

Pentagon Lip, Reinforced Body, Natural Pause

The five-sided pentagon lip generates a strong, flashy, lifelike swimming action whether you twitch with a high rod, jerk with a low rod, burn it back super-fast, or creep it in super-slow. On every pause, the lure settles into a natural horizontal position — exactly how a stunned baitfish hangs. The reinforced body handles repeated strikes from toothy predators without breaking down.
