Westin Swim Tail 12cm 68g Sinking Real Roach

Westin Swim Tail 12cm 68g Sinking – Real Roach – Four Actions, One Lure

The Westin Swim Tail is a versatile jerkbait (interchangeable soft-tail jerkbait) built on the proven 12cm Swim body, now paired with a screw-mounted tail system that lets you switch between a paddle tail and a curl tail in seconds. The Real Roach finish brings hand-painted, lifelike detail that covers a wide range of light and water conditions.

Two Tails, Four Retrieve Styles

Each pack includes one paddle tail and one curl tail, together delivering four distinct swimming actions from a single body. Work the paddle tail on a steady retrieve or punctuate it with short pauses for a subtler, pulsing action. Flip to the curl tail and add twitches and longer pauses for an aggressive jerk presentation. Pro tip: mounting the curl tail pointing upward gives a more pronounced twitching action; rotating it downward shifts the lure into a classic tail-bait mode.

Built to Cast Far and Reach Depth

At 68g and 12cm, the sinking version is weighted for long casts and a controlled drop into deeper zones where bigger pike often hold. The full wire-through-body construction ensures the hook system stays secure under hard strikes and tough fighting fish. Ultra-sharp carbon steel hooks are ready to go straight out of the pack. For even deeper presentations, a switch weight can be added to the front wire eyelet.
