Westin Salty 12g 7cm Motoroil UV

Westin Salty 12g 7cm Motoroil UV — Versatile Shallow-Water Trout Lure

The Westin Salty is a genuine all-rounder: it punches into a headwind, works at any retrieve speed, and stays fishable in the shallowest runs — all in a hand-painted, baitfish-accurate profile that trout find hard to resist year-round.

Built for Shallow Water and Any Retrieve Speed

At 12g and 7cm, this is the mid-size Salty, light enough to work right in the surface zone yet heavy enough for confident casting even in strong wind. The UV-enhanced Motoroil finish gives the lure an extra edge in overcast skies, coloured water, or low morning light — conditions where sea trout and river trout are most active.

A Twitching Action That Triggers Bites

The Salty is designed for twitching and pause-and-go retrieves. A few sharp rod-tip twitches followed by a deliberate pause is all it takes; the lifelike silhouette and responsive swimming action do the rest. In winter, a slow crawl with extended pauses is particularly effective on selective trout. The Stay-On double split-ring hook mount reduces leverage during the fight, keeping fish on the hook all the way to the net.
