Westin Swim 8cm 0–1m 19g Sinking Real Perch

Westin Swim Glidebait (Glide Bait) 8 cm 19 g Sinking — Deadly S-Curve Action in a Compact Package

At 8 cm and 19 g, the sinking version of the Westin Swim Glidebait hits the surface zone (0–1 m) with authority and keeps working all the way down. In Real Perch colour, it's an instant confidence lure wherever perch, pike, or zander are the target.

Natural S-Curve Action That Does the Work for You

The Swim's signature S-curve swimming action kicks in the moment you start the retrieve — no specialist technique required. A slow, steady wind imitates a wounded baitfish drifting near the surface; speed it up or add short rod twitches and it becomes a panicked prey fish fleeing for its life. Combine either approach with deliberate pauses and the sinking body hangs temptingly in the strike zone, triggering reaction bites from even the most lethargic predators.

Built to Cast Far and Hook Reliably

A long-casting body design in durable ABS plastic lets you cover water efficiently, while a full wire-through-body construction ensures the fish stays connected under pressure. Ultra-sharp carbon steel hooks and hand-painted detailing complete a lure that is as dependable in construction as it is convincing in the water.

Choose the Right Variant

The Westin Swim Glidebait is available across a wide range of sizes, weights, buoyancies, and colours — making it straightforward to match the lure to the species, conditions, and rod setup at hand.
