Savage Gear Cannibal Shad Softbait 10cm 9g Perch

Savage Gear Cannibal Shad — Versatile Softbait for Predator Fishing

The Savage Gear Cannibal Shad in Perch colour at 10 cm / 9 g is a proven go-to softbait that covers a wide range of predatory species in a single, easy-to-rig package.

Lifelike Swimming Action

The Cannibal Shad is shaped to produce a natural, fluid tail kick on both steady retrieves and stop-and-go presentations. The action works through a wide speed range, making it effective whether you're slow-rolling deep or burning shallow flats.

Soft Yet Durable Body

Moulded from a supple, resilient plastic, the body compresses naturally when a fish grabs it, encouraging confident takes. The material holds up well over repeated casts and fish, reducing the number of replacements you need on the water.

Choose the Right Variant

The Cannibal Shad range spans four sizes and a broad colour palette to match the species and conditions you're targeting. Select based on the predator size, water depth, and local forage.

• 6.8 cm / 3 g — Perch, trout, and chub; ideal for light drop-shot or small jig-head rigs in clear, shallow water. Available in: YR Fluo, Glitterbug, Chartreuse.

• 8 cm / 5 g — All-round size for perch and zander; works well on medium jig heads in rivers and lakes. Available in: Blue Pearl, Fluo Glow, Perch.

• 10 cm / 9 g — Perch colour — Current variant. A step up in profile for zander, pike, and larger perch; suited to medium-heavy jig heads (14–21 g recommended) and Texas/Carolina rigs. The Perch colour pattern mimics the natural prey of most Central European predators.

• 12.5 cm / 20 g — Pike and large zander in deeper water or strong currents; best paired with heavy jig heads or used as a stinger-rigged trailer. Available in: Chartreuse.
