The blade design allows the lure to swim very lively and erratically with the most incredible 360-degree rotation on the slightest spin-stop – creating an incredible flash in the water. Each lure comes with an ultra-sharp Savage Gear Y-treble hook and a wide-gape beak point lure single hook – so the angler can choose which hook is best for the situation. The lure benefits from our Intense Strike Point (ISP) technology – by filling pre-drilled holes on the lure’s body with the strong night Glow and UV epoxy pasta, we have been able to create the most intense strike points you have ever seen. The ISPs draw in the seatrout and seabass and they hit the lure hard right in the tail section where the hook is – ensuring a superb hookup rate.

FAQs
What types of fish is the Seeker lure best for?
The Savage Gear Seeker lure is primarily designed for saltwater species such as seatrout and seabass. Its action and flash can also attract other predatory saltwater fish.
What is the Intense Strike Point (ISP) technology?
ISP technology involves filling pre-drilled holes on the lure's body with strong Night Glow and UV epoxy pasta. These create highly visible points that attract fish, especially in low light or murky conditions.
Why are two different hook types included?
The inclusion of both a treble hook and a single hook provides anglers with the flexibility to choose the hook best suited for specific fishing conditions, regulations, or personal preference.
How should I retrieve this lure?
The Seeker lure performs well with a variety of retrieves, but its 360-degree rotation on spin-stop is a key feature. Experiment with steady retrieves, stop-and-go techniques, and pauses to find what works best.
Can I use this lure in freshwater?
While designed for saltwater, its action and flash might attract freshwater predatory fish. However, its durability and hook selection are optimized for saltwater environments.
What does the 'Sinking' designation mean?
Sinking means the lure will descend in the water column when not actively being retrieved, allowing you to present it at different depths. This is useful for targeting fish that are holding deeper.
Troubleshooting
Lure not swimming correctly
Ensure the line tie is straight and the hook is not impeding the lure's action. Check that the lure is rigged properly and not twisted.
Poor casting distance
Verify there are no tangles or line issues. Ensure the lure is not damaged and its weight is appropriate for your rod and reel setup.
Hooks are dull or corroded
Sharpen the hooks using a hook file or replace them if significantly corroded. Regular rinsing and drying will help prevent corrosion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
Choose either the included treble hook or the single hook based on your fishing environment and target species. Treble hooks offer more hooking points but can be more detrimental to the fish. Single hooks are often preferred for catch-and-release or when fishing in areas with regulations against treble hooks.
Attach the chosen hook securely to the lure's eyelet.
Compatibility:
Suitable for saltwater fishing, particularly for species like seatrout and seabass.
Effective with various retrieve speeds, but excels with a stop-and-go technique.
Compatible with standard monofilament or braided fishing lines.
Care:
Always rinse the lure thoroughly with fresh water after each saltwater use to prevent corrosion.
Dry the lure and hooks completely before storing.
Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a lure box or bag to protect the finish and hooks.
