Westin Swim 8cm 0–1m 16g Suspending Real Baltic Pike

Westin Swim Glidebait (Glide Bait) 8cm 16g Suspending – Deadly S-Curve Action in the Strike Zone

The Westin Swim Glidebait in Real Baltic Pike is a proven multi-species lure trusted by professional guides worldwide. At 8cm and 16g with a suspending buoyancy, it sits right in the 0–1m zone and can be worked at any pace to trigger predators that refuse flashier presentations.

Effortless Technique, Consistent Results

Few lures are as forgiving to fish as the Swim. A simple steady retrieve produces a hypnotic S-curve swimming action that mimics a wandering baitfish, while varying your retrieve speed and adding short rod twitches or pauses transforms it into a fleeing or injured prey. Slow down and it imitates a dying fish drifting in the water column; speed up and it radiates panic – both trigger hard strikes from pike, perch, zander, and asp.

Built to Perform, Cast After Cast

The Swim is constructed around a full wire-through-body frame, meaning hook pulls are virtually eliminated even from the largest fish. Ultra-sharp carbon steel hooks are ready to stick on the first run, and the long-casting body design puts you on fish that others simply can't reach. Each lure is finished with hand-painted detail colours, and the Real Baltic Pike pattern is specifically designed to match the grey-green flanked prey fish common in Baltic coastal and brackish-water environments.

Choose the Right Variant

The Swim Glidebait range covers a wide spectrum of sizes, weights, and buoyancies so you can match the lure to your target species, conditions, and rod setup.
