Salmo Executor Shallow Runner 12cm 2.5–5m 33g Real Dace

Salmo Executor Shallow Runner — Big Profile for Open-Water Predators

The 12 cm Executor Shallow Runner (SR) in Real Dace is a full-bodied wobbler that sits precisely in the strike zone of upward-hunting predators, reaching 2.5–5 m without running away into the depths.

Stays Where the Fish Are Looking

At 33 g and 12 cm, this lure presents a substantial mouthful and dives to the 2.5–5 m band where suspended pike, zander, and large perch patrol open water. The SR lip angle keeps it locked in that window whether you retrieve fast or slow, so you spend more time in the feeding zone with every cast or troll pass.

Versatile Across Tactics and Venues

Cast it across lake flats, work it along drop-off edges, or trail it behind the boat over open water — the Executor adapts. Vary retrieve speed to change its action; add a trolling weight ahead of the lure if you need to push it a little deeper. The Real Dace finish mimics a natural baitfish and performs well in clear to moderately coloured water.

Choose the Right Variant

The Executor Shallow Runner is available in several sizes and colours to match different target species, water depths, and rod setups. Select the size that fits your target depth, the predator you're after, and the weight your rod is rated for.
