Westin Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait 5.5cm 16g Glimmer Perch

Westin Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait 5.5cm 16g – Deep-Reaching High-Frequency Action

The 5.5cm, 16g version of the iconic Ricky the Roach brings serious weight and reach to your predator sessions. Cast it far, drop it fast, and let the high-frequency vibration do the rest in Glimmer Perch colour.

Dense Tungsten Body for Rapid Depth Control

The tungsten body weight gives this lure exceptional density in a compact frame, allowing it to cut through the water column and reach deeper drop-offs, ledges, and mid-water zones quickly. Fish it on a tight-line fall, rip it off the bottom, or wind it steadily – the high-frequency vibrating action stays consistent throughout.

SS Rattle Chamber Eyes That Trigger Strikes

The eyes are built from a stainless-steel rattle chamber housing a stainless-steel ball inside. This creates a subtle, distinctive clicking sound that complements the vibration signature and provokes reaction strikes from perch, pike, zander, and other predators. The stainless-steel blade adds further flash and movement to the overall profile.
