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

Westin Swim Glidebait 8cm 19g Sinking – Deadly S-Curve Action for Pike and Perch

The Westin Swim Glidebait (glide bait) is a proven favourite among professional guides worldwide, trusted to put fish on the bank for anglers of every skill level. At 8cm and 19g with a sinking action, this compact yet capable lure covers the 0–1m zone with authority.

Effortless Technique, Instant Results

You don't need to be an expert to work this bait effectively. A simple cast-and-wind retrieve already triggers the distinctive S-curve swimming action that predators find irresistible. Vary your retrieve speed, add short rod twitches or spin-stops, and the Swim shifts from a calmly drifting wounded baitfish to a frantic, fleeing prey — bites become explosive when you add pauses into the mix.

Built to Last, Designed to Cast

The Swim is constructed with a full wire-through-body frame for maximum strength when a heavy pike shakes its head. Ultra-sharp carbon steel hooks are ready to connect at first contact, while the long-casting body design lets you cover water efficiently. Hand-painted finishes — including the realistic Real Pike pattern — add lifelike detail that close-range predators won't ignore. The lure is lead-free and made from ABS plastic.
