The Sweeper's unique body shape enables wide, effortless glides and 180-degree turns with minimal rod movement. Most jerkbaits dart linearly; the Sweeper executes S-curve glides that mimic wounded prey and trigger reactive strikes. The polycarbonate wings create a signature shimmy that adds extra attraction.
Slow, long jerks produce wide glides for stalking weedy areas or suspending holds. Short, rapid twitches work shallower zones and create erratic action. Steady retrieves with occasional pauses work well in open water. Experiment to find what triggers strikes — the sinking action lets you control depth precisely.
The 12cm models (56g) excel in shallow to medium depths and when targeting smaller pike or large perch. The 14cm models (50g) suit medium to deeper water and larger pike. In clear water or bright conditions, use natural colors (Holo Smelt, Silver); in murky water or low light, choose red or chartreuse. Start with the size that matches your target fish and water depth, then adjust color based on conditions.
Yes. The sinking action and gliding behavior work well in current. In slow or flowing rivers, use steady retrieves or slow jerks to maintain position and control depth. The Sweeper's ability to pause mid-glide lets you hold water in pockets and deeper zones where pike hunt. Heavier 14cm models are better for strong current.
The Sweeper is equipped with quality treble hooks (supplied by Rasco, USA) mounted on split rings. This dual-hook setup provides solid hook sets on aggressive pike. The trebles are strong enough for pike up to 12kg+ (26lb+). For even more durability or when fishing very weedy areas, consider adding a rear stinger hook via the split ring.
The Sweeper excels in most conditions. In clear water, natural baitfish patterns (Holo Smelt) blend seamlessly. In murky or low-light water, UV and fluorescent patterns (Chartreuse, Red) create visibility. The sinking action works in weeds, on hard bottom, and around structure. Avoid extremely cold water (below 5°C) where pike hunting behavior slows significantly.

The Sweeper represents a breakthrough in glide bait design. Unlike traditional jerkbaits that dart linearly, the Sweeper executes dramatic side-to-side glides and effortless 180-degree turns with minimal rod movement. This unique S-curve swimming path mimics a dying baitfish and triggers visceral strikes from pike, zander, and large perch.
The Sweeper's distinctive body shape and perfect weight balance enable wide, controlled glides on every twitch. Polycarbonate "wings" stabilize the lure and create the signature shimmy that provokes predators. Hand-tuned and tank-tested at the Salmo factory in Poland, each lure is thru-wire welded for durability on hard-fighting pike. The sinking action allows precise depth control — fish slow jerks for suspending holds or rapid retrieves to cover water quickly.
Retrieve style determines performance: slow, long jerks produce wide glides perfect for stalking weedy areas; short, rapid twitches work shallow and deeper zones; steady retrieves with pauses keep the lure in the strike zone. Works equally well in still waters and current. Available in four sizes (12cm and 14cm), each tuned for different pike sizes and water conditions.
Salmo High Density Space-Aged Foam (HDSF) body resists impact damage. Split rings and treble hooks from trusted suppliers (Rasco USA) ensure solid hook sets. Natural (holographic) and fluorescent color patterns match local baitfish or create high-visibility options in low-light or murky water.
