Salmo Hornet Floating 9cm Holo Red Head

Salmo Hornet Floating 9cm — Built for Big Predators

Designed in collaboration with Europe's top catfish specialists, the Salmo Hornet 9cm floating crankbait delivers the strength and vibration needed to target monster fish while remaining irresistible to pike.

Extreme Durability for Trophy Fish

Constructed from Salmo High Density Space-Aged Foam (HDSF) with thru-wire construction welded at the ends, this crankbait is engineered to handle the punishment of battling large catfish and aggressive pike. The polycarbonate lip withstands repeated strikes and contact with heavy structure, while USA-made split rings ensure your connection never fails at the critical moment.

Versatile Casting and Trolling Performance

Whether you're casting to structure or trolling at distance, the Hornet 9cm transmits strong vibrations directly to your rod tip, giving you precise control and instant feedback even when the lure is 45 metres behind the boat. The floating action lets you work shallow zones, pause over cover, and trigger reaction strikes from suspended predators.

Choose the Right Variant

The Hornet Floating 9cm is available in multiple colour patterns to match your target species and water conditions:

• Holo Red Head — holographic finish with red head contrasts well in clear to stained water; effective for pike and catfish in varied light

• Holographic Grey Shiner — natural baitfish imitation for pressured waters

• Nordic Perch — realistic perch pattern for pike in perch-rich systems

• Silver Halo — bright metallic flash for low-light or murky conditions

• Green Tiger — bold contrast pattern for stained water and aggressive fish
