The 14 cm version weighs 57 g, while the 18 cm version weighs 113 g. Choose the smaller version for a smaller baitfish profile or the larger version for a bigger presentation, and match your tackle to the chosen weight. The 14 cm lure is described for pike, zander and perch, with pike the stated focus of the 18 cm version.
No additional jig head or hooks are needed for the supplied setup. The lure has an internal weight, a carbon steel single hook on the back and a belly treble, so it is supplied ready to fish rather than as a bare soft-plastic body. Each pack contains one lure in the selected colour.
No. The short tail section allows a slow glide, while the large paddle tail stays active and the body rolls at different retrieve speeds. You can use a steady retrieve or jig the lure. The 18 cm version is also described for trolling, so choose the size and presentation before choosing your tackle.
No numerical running depth or sink rate is supplied. Versions marked Sinking are sinking lures, but that designation does not specify a depth in metres. Choose by the stated length, weight and colour rather than a promised fixed running depth.

The Westin Ricky The Roach Shadtail is a soft, weighted swimbait for casting and jigging for larger predators. Its short tail section allows a slow, smooth glide, while the large paddle tail produces a fast, erratic action. The 14 cm version is described for pike, zander and perch fishing, while the 18 cm version offers a larger presentation for pike.
The paddle tail starts working as soon as the lure enters the water. A tight rolling body action and the high body profile create flank and belly flash at different retrieve speeds. This lets you retrieve steadily or work the lure with a jigging presentation without relying on a fast retrieve to produce movement. The 14 cm lure also produces strong pressure waves at low retrieve speeds. The flexible body, realistic eyes and hand-painted details support the roach imitation.
An internal weight and fitted carbon steel hooks make this a complete lure rather than an unrigged soft-plastic body. A single hook sits on the back and a treble beneath the belly, with full wire-through construction connecting the hardware through the body. The construction is lead-free and free from toxic phthalates.
The 14 cm version has a size 1 treble and a 10/0 single hook. The 18 cm versions with specified hook sizes have a 3/0 treble and a 12/0 single hook. Each pack contains one lure in the selected colour.
Choose 14 cm at 57 g for the smaller, lighter presentation, or 18 cm at 113 g for a larger baitfish profile and a heavier lure. Match your tackle to the selected lure weight. The 18 cm version is also described as suitable for trolling, although casting and jigging are the line's main applications.
Both sizes are available in Firetiger, Firetiger Rudd, Headlight, Lively Roach, Preyfish, Real Roach and Real Rudd. The 14 cm range also includes Bass Orange, Bling Perch, Blue Grass, Clear Roach, Clear Rudd, Didis Crazy Perch, Glitter Roach, Official Roach and RF Special. Colour changes the finish, not the stated size or weight within a size group. Versions labelled Sinking sink, but no numerical running depth or sink rate is specified.
