Westin Stanley The Stickleback Shadtail Softbait 5.5cm 1.5g Headlight

Westin Stanley The Stickleback Shadtail 5.5cm 1.5g Headlight — Maximum Visibility for Finesse Predator Fishing

The Westin Stanley The Stickleback Shadtail is a 3D-scanned replica of one of predators' favourite natural snacks, built into a super-soft finesse soft lure (softbait) that works equally well in fresh and saltwater. The Headlight colour is engineered to stand out in low-light or stained conditions where visibility matters most.

Lifelike Action That Predators Can't Ignore

Crafted from a super-soft, highly flexible plastic, Stanley produces an erratic, high-frequency swimming action and a pronounced paddle tail kick that triggers reaction strikes even at slow retrieves. Active eyes and hand-painted colour details complete a presentation that looks and moves like the real thing — a fat, protein-rich stickleback.

Versatile Rigging for Any Situation

At 5.5cm and 1.5g, this is a true finesse size that pairs naturally with a light jighead for vertical or casting presentations, or on a dropshot rig when fish are suspended or holding tight to structure. Its compact profile is ideal for targeting perch, trout, and smaller predators, but don't underestimate it for bigger fish in pressured or clear water.
