Westin Ricky the Roach Shadtail 7cm 6g Firetiger Rudd

Westin Ricky the Roach Shadtail 7 cm 6 g — Irresistible Action from the First Drop

The Westin Ricky the Roach Shadtail is a compact, hand-painted softbait built for active predator fishing. At 7 cm and 6 g, it sinks fast, starts working immediately on the drop, and keeps hunting fish honest at any retrieve speed.

Rolling Body Action That Flashes the Flanks

The slim body rolls on its own axis even at the slowest pace, causing the flanks to catch and scatter light with every turn. This natural, lateral flash mimics a struggling baitfish and triggers reaction strikes from perch, pike, and zander alike — especially during the initial sink phase when predators are most alert.

Paddle Tail That Pushes Water and Draws Attention

The wide, spade-shaped paddle tail generates strong water displacement and erratic, high-frequency movement without requiring a fast retrieve. Whether you're slow-rolling near bottom structure or hopping it on a jig head, the tail keeps thumping and the lure keeps producing. Realistic hand-painted eyes and a natural finish complete the illusion.

Choose the Right Variant

All variants share the same 7 cm / 6 g sinking shadtail format and rolling paddle-tail action, rigged on a jig head. Choose your colour to match conditions, water clarity, and target species:

• Firetiger Rudd(this variant) — warm orange-green contrast; excellent in coloured or stained water for perch and pike

• Firetiger — classic green-yellow tiger pattern; versatile all-round choice in murky water

• Lively Roach — neutral roach imitation; natural clear-water option for zander and larger perch

• Real Rudd — realistic rudd colouration; ideal when fish are feeding selectively on natural prey

• Headlight — bright attractor colour; suited for low-light, deep, or heavily coloured conditions

• Red Light — red-toned finish; effective at depth or in poor visibility

• Additional colour variants available — match to your local baitfish and light conditions
