Westin Swim 13.5cm 0–1m 77g Suspending Firetiger

Westin Swim Glidebait 13.5 cm 77 g Suspending – Effortless Action for Big Predators

The Westin Swim Glidebait (Glide Bait) in 13.5 cm / 77 g Suspending is a proven multi-species weapon that fishes itself on a simple retrieve and rewards experienced hands who add pauses and rod work. Firetiger is a high-contrast colour that excels in coloured or low-light water.

S-Curve Action That Triggers Strikes

As soon as the reel turns, the Swim carves its signature S-curve through the water, mimicking a healthy baitfish at speed or a wounded one on a slow, irregular retrieve. Hang it on a pause and it holds its depth – that suspended moment is when the hardest takes happen. Work it with steady winds, pull-and-wind, or short rod twitches to vary the tempo and trigger reaction bites from pike, zander, perch, and asp.

Built for Long Casts and Hard Fishing

The long-casting body profile and full wire-through construction mean you can punch this 77 g bait into the wind and trust it to handle the shock of a big fish. Ultra-sharp carbon steel hooks are mounted on the through-wire so hook holds stay solid even under heavy pressure. Hand-painted finishes add realistic detail that stands up to repeated fish and use.
