Westin Stanley The Stickleback Shadtail Softbait 9cm 7g Baitfish Glitter

Westin Stanley The Stickleback Shadtail 9 cm / 7 g – Life-Like Predator Magnet in Baitfish Glitter

Based on a precise 3D scan of a real stickleback, Stanley is a super-soft paddle-tail soft lure (soft bait) that works equally well in freshwater and saltwater. The Baitfish Glitter colour adds a shimmering flash that triggers predators in a wide range of light and water conditions.

Unrivalled Realism That Triggers Strikes

Every detail of Stanley's body — from its lifelike active eyes to the hand-painted colour work — mirrors the natural stickleback that predators instinctively target. The ultra-soft, flexible plastic transmits the slightest current into vivid, erratic swimming action, keeping the lure looking alive even on a slow retrieve or during a dropshot pause.

Versatile Rigging, Instant Action

At 9 cm and 7 g, Stanley fits comfortably on a light to medium jighead and is equally effective on a dropshot rig. The easy-action paddle tail kicks and flutters at all retrieve speeds, generating vibration that perch, pike, zander, sea trout, cod and sea bass all find hard to ignore. The lure fishes well in both salt and freshwater without any adjustment.
