Salmo Butcher Sinking Crankbait 5cm 7g 1–2m White Flash Yellow

Salmo Butcher Sinking Crankbait — Aggressive Wobble for Freshwater Predators

The Salmo Butcher Sinking in White Flash Yellow is a 5 cm crankbait built for anglers who want a high-visibility, hard-working lure that gets down into the strike zone fast and stays there with an irresistible wobbling action.

Proven Wobbling Action That Triggers Strikes

The Butcher's aggressive wobbling action is engineered to provoke reactions from perch, pike, bass, trout, and chub alike. The bulbus 5 cm baitfish profile displaces water in a way that closely mimics a fleeing baitfish, giving predators exactly the trigger they need to commit. Every lure is hand-tuned and tank-tested before leaving the factory, so it performs consistently right out of the packet.

Depth, Versatility, and Sharp Hooks Out of the Box

At 7 g, the sinking version reaches a running depth of 1.0–2.0 m when casting, making it well-suited for working the mid-water column in rivers, lakes, and canals. The White Flash Yellow colourway maximises visibility in a range of light and water-clarity conditions. Premium VMC treble hooks in size 8 are razor-sharp and reliable, reducing the chance of losing fish at the net.

Choose the Right Variant

The Butcher 5 cm is available in floating and sinking versions across a range of colours. Choose the version that best matches your target depth and technique:

Butcher Sinking 5cm White Flash Yellow (7 g, depth 1.0–2.0 m) — high-visibility colourway for stained water or low-light sessions; ideal for perch, pike, bass, and trout across rivers, lakes, and canals
Butcher Sinking 5cm [other sinking colours] — same depth and weight profile in alternative colour options for different water clarities and light conditions
Butcher Floating 5cm [colours] (5 g, depth 0.8–1.5 m) — stays higher in the water column; suited to shallower venues or when fish are feeding close to the surface
