Westin Stanley The Stickleback Shadtail Softbait 7.5cm 4g Headlight

Westin Stanley The Stickleback Shadtail 7.5 cm / 4 g – Headlight – Lifelike Predator Magnet for Salt and Fresh Water

The stickleback is a high-fat, protein-rich baitfish that predators rarely refuse. Westin's Stanley The Stickleback Shadtail is a 3D-scanned replica of the real thing, dressed in the bright Headlight colour and built to work equally well in saltwater and freshwater.

Erratic Action That Triggers Strikes

Moulded from super-soft, flexible plastic, Stanley produces an unpredictable, high-frequency swimming action the moment it enters the water. The easy-action paddle tail kicks and flutters on every twitch and pause, mimicking a struggling baitfish and giving predators very little time to think before committing.

Hand-Painted Detail and Active Eyes

Westin finishes each lure with hand-painted colour details that hold up to repeated strikes, paired with realistic active eyes that add a lifelike focal point. At 7.5 cm and 4 g, the profile sits in a versatile middle ground — substantial enough to attract larger perch, zander, sea trout, and bass, yet light enough to fish effectively on a lightweight jighead or a dropshot rig.
