Salmo Hornet Floating 4cm Holographic Grey Shiner

Salmo Hornet Floating 4cm — Holographic Grey Shiner — Proven walleye and predator magnet

The Salmo Hornet Floating 4cm in Holographic Grey Shiner delivers the fast-twitch, rod-vibrating action that made it an In-Fisherman Magazine all-time walleye classic. Hand-crafted in Poland and tank-tested before shipping, this crankbait is equally deadly on perch, pike, and trout across rivers, lakes, and reservoirs.

Unmatched durability and action

Built from Salmo High Density Space-Aged Foam (HDSF)—engineered to mimic balsa buoyancy yet resist tooth marks and water absorption—the Hornet shrugs off aggressive strikes and keeps swimming season after season. The welded through-wire construction and unbreakable polycarbonate bill ensure hooks stay put and the lure holds its tune, dive after dive.

Mid-range depth coverage with universal appeal

Running between 1.5 and 3.1 m, the 4 cm Hornet targets the strike zone where walleye, zander, and bass ambush baitfish. The Holographic Grey Shiner finish mimics natural forage in clear to lightly stained water, triggering reaction strikes in dawn, dusk, and bright midday conditions alike.
