Salmo Slider Sinking Jerkbait 5cm 0.5–1m 8g Chart

Salmo Slider Sinking 5cm — the legendary glider that started it all

The Slider is the first European glider jerkbait and remains a legend among predator anglers. Its unique shape and irresistible action have made it one of the most copied lures in the world, yet the original still casts a spell over pike, perch, zander, and bass.

Every retrieve technique works

The Slider's greatest strength is its foolproof versatility. Whether you twitch it aggressively, glide it smoothly, or retrieve it steadily, the lure delivers that famous side-to-side action that triggers strikes. There is simply no wrong way to fish it, making it perfect for beginners and experts alike.

A compact profile for pressured waters

At 5 cm and 8 g, this sinking version dives to 0.5–1 m and excels in shallow bays, canals, and around structure. The compact silhouette imitates small baitfish and perch fry, ideal when predators feed on tiny forage or when finesse presentations outperform larger lures.

Choose the right variant

The Slider Sinking range offers three sizes and a wide palette of proven colours to match any water and species:

• 5 cm / 8 g / 0.5–1 m — perch, small pike, chub, trout in streams and shallow bays; finesse presentations in pressured waters (Chart, Real Roach, Real Hot Perch, Holo Tiger, Wounded Real Grey Shiner, Holo Smelt, Red Wake)
