CG_Fishes Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 I'm looking for an 8" trout colored glide bait for under $30 and it seems that the savage gear is the best option, does anyone have any experience with this bait? if anyone has any other suggestions id love to hear them. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt1fish Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 The three baits that are around your budget that I’ve personally used are the Savage Gear, R2S Waver and Duel Ninja Glide. The trout pattern paint job leaves a lot to be desired on the savage gear however the bait itself is a fish catcher. It’s heavier than the R2S S-Waver which means it works better in situations with current or when you need to probe depths. Plus I believe it’s a better glide action compared to a Waver. Stock hooks are legit so that’s a plus. I’ve just recently been turned onto this bait and it’s replaced the Waver in my tackle bag. The colors of the Duel are very JDM and metallicy. They’re seem to be lighter than the other two on casts and have a decent glide. Color selection options go to the S-Waver. Hope this helps.
