Salmo Perch Deep Runner 8cm 1.5–4.6m 14g Perch

Salmo Perch Deep Runner 8cm — the classic crankbait that works

The Salmo Perch Deep Runner 8cm in Perch is a proven crankbait with a strong, aggressive action that has earned its place in every predator angler's tackle box. This lifelike perch imitation has been widely copied by competitors—proof of its effectiveness on European waters.

Realistic perch imitation that triggers strikes

The natural perch pattern mimics a common prey fish found across Europe, making it highly attractive to pike, zander, and large perch. The aggressive wobble and diving action provoke reaction strikes even from inactive fish.

Dives deep and stays in the strike zone

With a running depth of 1.5–4.6 m and 14 g weight, this crankbait reaches the zones where predators hunt. The deep-diving lip keeps the lure working at depth during retrieval, ideal for exploring drop-offs, channels, and deep weed edges.

Choose the right variant

The Perch Deep Runner 8cm is available in multiple color options to match different water conditions and prey fish:

• Holographic Perch (current product) — natural perch pattern for clear to slightly stained water; all-round choice for pike, zander, and perch

• Hot Perch — high-contrast variant for murky water or low-light conditions

• Albino Perch — pale profile for bright days or pressured fish
