Salmo Hornet Sinking 5cm Olive Hot Spot

Salmo Hornet Sinking 5cm — Fast-Sinking Crankbait for Deeper Zones

The Salmo Hornet Sinking in 5 cm drops quickly into deeper feeding lanes and tight beneath overhangs, giving you precise depth control where walleye, perch and trout hunt.

Reaches Fish Below the Surface Fast

The sinking version lets you count down to the exact strike zone, explore mid-water columns and work current seams without the lure riding high. Its tight wobble and rod-pulsing vibration trigger instinctive bites even from cautious predators.

Tooth-Proof Foam Body and Through-Wire Construction

Built from Salmo's High Density Space-Aged Foam, the Hornet resists pike teeth, stays buoyancy-neutral and won't waterlog. A welded single through-wire armature and unbreakable polycarbonate lip ensure the hooks stay locked and the lure keeps fishing season after season.

Choose the Right Variant

The Hornet Sinking family covers a range of depths, species and forage:

• 2.5 cm — ultra-light rods, small streams, trout and asp
