Westin Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait 4.5cm 9g Firetiger Rudd

Westin Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait 4.5cm 9g – Deep-Sinking Predator Trigger in Firetiger Rudd

The Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait (VB) is a compact, heavy-sinking lure engineered for high-frequency vibration and maximum casting distance — now in an aggressive Firetiger Rudd pattern that works hard in coloured or low-light water.

Dense Tungsten Body for Fast Descent and Long Casts

The tungsten body weight gives this 4.5cm, 9g lure a density that ordinary lead-core or hollow plastics simply can't match. It sinks rapidly to the strike zone, making it ideal for fishing deeper drop-offs and mid-water shelves where predators hold. The compact profile cuts through wind and lands where lighter lures won't reach.

SS Rattle Chamber Eyes and Dual Connection Points

The stainless-steel eyes each house a single stainless-steel ball, producing a subtle but distinctive clicking sound that provokes reaction strikes across a wide range of species. Two connection points let you tune the action on the water: use the rear point with its pre-mounted split ring for hard, thumping vibrations on a steady retrieve or when jigging; switch to the front connection point for a faster, tighter action when fish are chasing. The rear hole also allows you to reposition the hook or add a willow blade for extra flash.

Choose the Right Variant

The Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait is available in two sizes and a range of colours to match forage and conditions.

• 4.5cm / 9g – Real Roach: natural roach finish; clear-water, daytime fishing for perch and zander

• 4.5cm / 9g – Real Rudd: warm amber tones; clear to lightly stained water, all-round predator use
