Salmo Hornet Floating 4cm UV Purple

Salmo Hornet Floating 4cm UV Purple — Proven Walleye Crankbait with Rod-Vibrating Action

Recognized by In-Fisherman Magazine as one of the greatest walleye crankbaits of all time, the Salmo Hornet Floating delivers a fast-twitch, rod-vibrating action that triggers strikes from perch, walleye, pike, and bass in every freshwater condition.

Exceptionally Durable Foam Construction

Crafted from proprietary High Density Space-Aged Foam (HDSF) engineered to match the buoyancy of balsa wood, this crankbait resists tooth punctures, absorbs no water, and outlasts traditional materials. The unbreakable polycarbonate lip and welded through-wire construction ensure hooks never tear away, even under repeated predator attacks.

Hand-Tuned for Instant Results

Every Hornet is individually hand-painted, tank-tested, and tuned in Poland before leaving the factory, guaranteeing perfect action straight from the package. The UV Purple finish offers high contrast visibility in stained water and low-light conditions, while the balanced floating design allows precise depth control and effective stop-and-go retrieves.
