Product Information

Full details

The Savage Gear Savage Minnow Weedless Lure is designed for anglers targeting pike, bass, zander, and perch in both freshwater and saltwater. Its key benefit is the highly realistic baitfish imitation with a lively kicking action that triggers predator instincts, even on the drop. A potential caveat is that the weedless design, while effective, may require specific rigging techniques for optimal performance.

FAQs

What species is this lure designed for?

This lure is designed for targeting pike, bass, zander, and perch in both freshwater and saltwater environments.

How do I make the lure weedless?

The lure features a weedless design with an interchangeable EWG hook. Rig the hook so the point is slightly embedded in the soft body for maximum snag resistance, ensuring it can still penetrate the fish's mouth upon setting the hook.

Can I change the hook size?

Yes, the lure features a click-on connection for the interchangeable EWG hook, allowing you to swap hook sizes (#3/0 or #5/0) as needed for different fishing conditions or target species.

What is the purpose of the Pro Peg body holder?

The Pro Peg body holder is designed to securely attach the soft PVC body to the jig head, preventing it from sliding down during retrieves or when fighting fish.

Does the lure make noise?

Yes, the lure includes a removable glass rattle that can be inserted to provide an enticing sound to attract fish.

What should I do after fishing with this lure?

After use, rinse the lure thoroughly with fresh water to remove any dirt, salt, or debris, and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

What action does this lure have?

The lure features a lively kicking action on the tail during both the drop and retrieve, mimicking a baitfish's movement. It also has articulated head movement for enhanced realism.

Troubleshooting

Lure not swimming true or spinning

Check that the hook is rigged straight and centered. Ensure the soft body is securely attached to the jig head and not twisted.

Soft body slides down the hook shank

Ensure you are using the Pro Peg system correctly and consider using a toothpick to further secure the body to the jig head.

Difficulty with weedless rigging

Experiment with different hook point exposures. For maximum weedlessness, bury the hook point slightly into the soft body, ensuring it can still penetrate when a fish strikes.

Lure not standing up on the bottom

Verify that the jig head is properly seated and that the lure is balanced correctly on the bottom. Obstructions or uneven surfaces can affect its posture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
