Westin Great Heron Spoon 22g 8.5cm Arctic Char

Westin Great Heron Wobbler 8.5cm 22g — Vivid Action for Sea Trout and More

Forged in Scandinavian tradition and refined with Finnish and Swedish expertise, the Great Heron is a proven spinning lure that earns its place in any coastal or freshwater tackle box.

Speed-Independent Action That Triggers Bites

Whether you work it fast along a current seam or crawl it slowly through calmer water, the Great Heron maintains a highly vivid swimming action at every retrieve speed. That consistency is what sets it apart — predators react to it regardless of conditions, making it a reliable choice when other lures go quiet.

Built for Serious Fishing, Finished to Last

Constructed from ABS plastic with a zinc ballast and finished in a hand-painted Arctic Char pattern, this lure is both durable and visually convincing. The lead-free build meets modern environmental standards, while the Stay On double split-ring hook mount significantly reduces lever effect during the fight — keeping fish pinned. Japanese-style carbon steel hooks in sizes #6 / #5 / #4 complete a well-thought-out rig.

Choose the Right Variant

The Great Heron is available in three sizes and two lure types across a wide range of colours. Match your choice to your target species, water conditions, and casting setup:

• Great Heron 13g / 5.5cm — Wobbler / various colours (e.g. Brown Trout Fry, Gold Rush, Pickled Sardine, Redlight, Brook Trout Fry, Steel Sardine): Compact and light — ideal for rivers, smaller estuaries, ultralight spinning gear, and targeting trout in shallower or calmer water.

• Great Heron 18g / 6.5cm — Spoon / various colours (e.g. Arctic Char, Brook Trout Fry, Headlight, Olive Diamond, Redlight, Smallpox): Mid-range spoon size suited to moderate currents, estuary mouths, and balanced spinning tackle; effective for sea trout and perch.

• Great Heron 18g / 7.5cm — Spoon / various colours (e.g. Blue Diamond, Brown Trout Fry, Copper Mine, GFR, Headlight, Olive Diamond): Slightly larger spoon profile for deeper drifts or stronger flows; covers sea trout, asp, and pike.

• Great Heron 22g / 8.5cm — Wobbler / Arctic Char: The heaviest wobbler in the range. At 22g and 8.5cm, it casts well into wind or current, reaches greater depths on the retrieve, and presents a larger profile — well suited to open coastlines, big estuaries, and targeting larger sea trout, salmon, pike, and asp. Arctic Char is a naturalistic baitfish colour that performs in clear to lightly coloured water.

• Great Heron 22g / 8.5cm — Wobbler / Copper Mine, Gold Rush, Redlight, Headlight, Olive Diamond, Brook Trout Fry, Brown Trout Fry, Pickled Sardine, Smallpox, Steel Sardine, Blue Diamond (22g/7.5cm): Same 22g wobbler platform in alternative colour options — brighter tones like Gold Rush and Redlight suit coloured or low-light water; natural patterns like Brook Trout Fry and Steel Sardine work well in clear conditions.
