Description

Perch Crusher 76mm – Deadly Strikes for Perch Fishing Target Species: Perch, Chub, Zander (and opportunistic Pike) Suggested Rigging: Jig head and dropshot The Perch Crusher is a compact, aggressive 76mm deep-belly baby shad designed to trigger reaction bites from pressured perch and other freshwater predators. Built around a pronounced baitfish profile and finished with a thin, elongated fork tail , this lure delivers maximum movement with minimal effort. The deep belly displaces water efficiently, creating a strong visual and lateral-line presence even at slow retrieve speeds. Meanwhile, the long fork tail comes alive on the drop, producing a tight, nervous kick that perfectly imitates a wounded fry—exactly the kind of signal big perch struggle to ignore. At just the right size for UK waters, the Perch Crusher excels in canals, rivers, and stillwaters where natural prey is small but predators are selective. Disclaimer: Due to the bespoke nature of these products, there may be slight imperfections or colour variations between batches.

  • Strong visual/lateral-line presence at slow retrieves
  • Thin fork tail produces a tight, nervous kick on the drop
