Salmo Hornet Sinking 4cm Hot Perch

Salmo Hornet Sinking 4cm Hot Perch — Proven walleye and perch magnet

The Salmo Hornet Sinking in Hot Perch is a 4cm crankbait that combines aggressive diving action with the proven color pattern that freshwater predators can't resist. Hand-crafted in Poland and tank-tested for perfect action straight from the box.

Fast-sinking profile for active fish

The sinking action lets you work the 2–2.5m zone efficiently, triggering reaction strikes from walleye, perch, and zander. The high-density foam body creates a rod-thumping vibration that draws fish from a distance, while the Hot Perch finish imitates wounded baitfish.

Built to survive trophy teeth

Salmo's proprietary foam resists pike and zander teeth far better than balsa, won't absorb water, and maintains its action season after season. The welded through-wire construction and unbreakable polycarbonate lip ensure the Hornet keeps fishing even after aggressive strikes.
