Savage Gear Cutbait Herring Softbait

Savage Gear Cutbait Herring – Realistic Saltwater Soft Bait for Trophy Cod & Halibut

The Savage Gear Cutbait Herring is a purpose-built XXL soft bait (soft bait) designed for serious saltwater anglers targeting large predators in Norwegian, Icelandic, and Danish waters. Modelled precisely on the herring — the number-one forage fish for big marine predators in these regions — this lure delivers the action and profile that trigger confident strikes.

Sub-Skin Colour Technology for Maximum Realism

Savage Gear's proprietary sub-skin colour technology places pigment layers beneath a translucent outer skin, replicating the depth, shimmer, and natural translucency of a real herring. In clear Nordic saltwater, this visual realism makes a decisive difference when targeting wary trophy fish like halibut and large coalfish.

True Herring Swimming Action

Every detail of the body shape and tail configuration is tuned to reproduce the swimming behaviour of a live herring. Each pack includes two bodies: one rigged on a jig head with a paddle tail for an active, thumping retrieve, and one spare body with a curl tail that offers a subtler, gliding action — letting you adapt to conditions without changing your whole rig.

Choose the Right Variant

The Cutbait Herring is available in two sizes and a wide range of proven colours. Pick your size based on target species, water depth, and current strength:

• 20 cm / 270 g — suited to cod, coalfish, and mixed saltwater species; more manageable in moderate depths and lighter currents

• 25 cm / 460 g — the go-to choice for halibut and XXL cod in deep water or strong tidal flow; the extra weight gets the lure down fast and holds the zone

• Colour variants cover natural baitfish tones and high-contrast options; match to water clarity and light conditions
