Salmo Executor Shallow Runner 5cm 0.6–1.2m 5g Real Dace

Salmo Executor Shallow Runner 5 cm — Precise Depth Control for Predators Near the Surface

The Salmo Executor Shallow Runner (SR) in Real Dace is a 5 cm, 5 g crankbait wobbler designed to work the 0.6–1.2 m depth zone — right where surface-oriented predators are actively hunting.

Stays in the Strike Zone Without Snagging

At just 5 g and 5 cm, this compact Executor runs shallow and consistent, maintaining the 0.6–1.2 m range through the retrieve. That makes it ideal for fishing over weed edges, shallow flats, and river pools without constantly pulling the lure out of the fish's field of vision. Its classic Executor body shape produces a tight, natural action that triggers bites across a range of retrieve speeds.

Versatile Technique, River or Still Water

This lure performs equally well cast-and-retrieved in rivers and trolled or worked along drop-offs in still water. The Real Dace colour mimics a common prey fish with convincing detail, making it a practical choice when dace, roach, or similar baitfish are on the menu. At lighter weight it suits medium-light spinning setups and works well for perch, asp, and smaller pike in clear, shallow environments.

Choose the Right Variant

The Executor Shallow Runner range spans four sizes and multiple colours to match different water depths, target species, and fishing setups. Select the size and colour that fits your conditions:

• 5 cm / 5 g / 0.6–1.2 m / Real Dace — compact size for shallow water; ideal for perch, asp, chub, and smaller predators in rivers and lakes

• 7 cm / 8 g / 1–2 m / Real Dace — mid-size option covering slightly deeper water; good all-round river and lake lure for perch and pike

• 9 cm / 14.5 g / 1.5–3 m — larger profile reaching the mid-depth column; suited for pike and bigger perch

• 12 cm / 33 g / 2.5–5 m / Real Dace — deep-running heavyweight for trolling open water; targets big pike and large predators

• 12 cm / 33 g / 2.5–5 m / Emerald Perch — same deep-trolling size in a perch-pattern colour

• 12 cm / 33 g / 2.5–5 m / Phantom Perch — deep runner with a more subtle perch finish
