Westin Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait 4.5cm 9g Smelt Scale

Westin Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait 4.5cm 9g – Maximum Depth, Maximum Vibration

The Ricky the Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait (4.5cm / 9g) in Smelt Scale combines a dense tungsten body with a stainless-steel blade to deliver a relentless high-frequency vibrating action. Its compact profile sinks fast and casts far, putting you on fish at depth with minimal effort.

Tungsten Body for Fast Sink and Long Casts

The tungsten body weight gives this compact 9g lure exceptional density, so it cuts through wind and water to reach deep drop-offs, channel edges, and mid-water columns quickly. Cast it out, let it fall on a tight line, rip it off the bottom, or hold a steady retrieve — the high-frequency vibration stays consistent at any speed.

SS Rattle Chamber Eyes That Trigger Extra Strikes

The eyes are built from a stainless-steel chamber housing a single stainless-steel ball, producing a subtle, distinctive clicking sound as the lure moves. This understated rattle adds an acoustic dimension that can tempt predators into striking when vibration alone isn't enough. Two ultra-sharp carbon steel hooks with a special coating complete the package, and the rear hole allows you to slide the hook position or rig an optional willow blade for even more flash.

Choose the Right Variant

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

• 4.5cm / 9g — Smelt Scale(this product): compact, fast-sinking; ideal for perch, zander, and trout in clear to lightly stained water where a baitfish silhouette works well; suits lighter spinning setups and finesse jigging

• 4.5cm / 9g — Real Roach: natural roach finish; great all-rounder for mixed predator fishing

• 4.5cm / 9g — Real Rudd: warm golden tones; effective in coloured or tannin-stained water

• 4.5cm / 9g — Glimmer Perch: perch-pattern flash; strong choice for targeting large perch

• 4.5cm / 9g — Firetiger Rudd: high-contrast colour for low-light or murky conditions
