Salmo Executor Shallow Runner 9cm 14.5g Floating Olive Bleak

Salmo Executor Shallow Runner 9cm — Proven Mid-Depth Crankbait for Pike and Perch

The Executor Shallow Runner in 9cm delivers classic baitfish profile and tail-side wobble that triggers strikes from pike, perch, and zander in shallow to mid-depth water. Hand-tuned and tank-tested in Poland since 2004, this floating crankbait combines Salmo's True Image Technology finish with bomb-proof HDSF foam construction.

Dives 1.5–3m with Flawless Action

The polycarbonate lip pulls the 9cm Executor SR down to 1.5–3m while the thru-wire construction and high-density foam body produce a tight, hunting wobble that mimics fleeing baitfish. Cast and retrieve along drop-offs, weed edges, or over submerged structure—the Olive Bleak pattern imitates roach and bleak perfectly in clear to slightly stained water.

Built to Last a Lifetime

Salmo's High Density Space-Aged Foam (HDSF) body resists teeth and impacts better than plastic, while the welded thru-wire rig and USA-made Rasco split rings handle aggressive takes. Every Executor is individually tuned and backed by Salmo's lifetime warranty, so you fish with confidence season after season.

Choose the Right Variant

The Executor Shallow Runner family covers four sizes and multiple finishes to match forage and conditions. Pick your size and colour based on target species, water clarity, and depth zone:

• 5cm (5g, 0.6–1.2m) – ultra-shallow cranking for perch and chub over weed flats and in skinny water

• 7cm (8g, 1–2m) – versatile size for perch, trout, and asp in rivers and shallow bays

• 9cm (14.5g, 1.5–3m) – Olive Bleak and other colours; mid-depth workhorse for pike, zander, and perch along structure and weed edges

• 12cm (33g, 2.5–5m) – deep-diving model for big pike and zander in open water and deep weed lines

• Olive Bleak – natural roach/bleak imitation for clear to slightly turbid water

• Holographic Golden Back – flash and vibration in stained or low-light conditions

• Real Hot Perch – high-contrast perch pattern for aggressive pike

• Holo Shiner – silver baitfish for bright days and gin-clear water

• Natural Perch / Red Wake / Black Shadow – additional colours for varied forage and visibility
