Westin Stanley The Stickleback Shadtail Softbait 9cm 7g Chartreuse Stickleback

Westin Stanley The Stickleback Shadtail — A Life-Like Predator Trigger in Chartreuse Stickleback

The stickleback is a protein-rich baitfish that predators rarely pass up — and Westin's Stanley the Stickleback Shadtail (soft lure) puts an ultra-realistic imitation in your hand. This 9 cm, 7 g version in Chartreuse Stickleback is built for anglers who want maximum visibility and a proven profile in both fresh and salt water.

3D-Scanned Detail That Fools Wary Predators

Stanley is modelled from a 3D scan of a real stickleback, resulting in a body shape, texture and proportion that look genuinely alive in the water. The active eyes and hand-painted colour details reinforce that realism at close quarters, triggering strikes from perch, pike, zander and sea predators that might ignore a less convincing bait.

Erratic Action, Zero Effort

Moulded from super-soft, flexible plastic, the lure moves freely at even the slowest retrieve speeds. The easy-action paddle tail generates a consistent, high-frequency beat while the body itself swims with an erratic, darting motion — a combination that draws reaction bites when fish are finicky. Rig it on a jighead or a dropshot setup and let the material do the work.
