The Savage Gear Sandeel Pencil is a specialized fishing lure specifically designed to mimic the appearance and motion of the natural prey of large game fish, the sandeel. Its inception from a 3D scan of an actual sandeel translates into an unparalleled realistic appearance that is unmatched in the artificial lure market.
The inventive design of the Savage Gear Sandeel Pencil caters to multiple fishing scenarios through its unique action pattern and strategic acoustic features. The lure's long distance casting capabilities make it an excellent choice for both shore anglers and boat fishers looking to cover vast expanses of water for pelagic predators.
When put into action, the Sandeel Pencil performs two vital movements that enhance its allure. The first is the natural “S-Curve” action when retrieved straight, simulating a wounded or escaping baitfish that triggers the predatory instincts of fish. When paused, it adds another layer of appeal with its flutter and roll motion, which mimics a fatigued or dying fish, often leading to aggressive strikes from species like bass, bluefish, or even tuna.
In addition, its internal rattle chamber employs sound to boost its effectiveness even further, making it a top choice for anglers looking to improve their catch rate.
