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

Salmo Slider Sinking 5cm — Legendary gliding action for every predator

The Salmo Slider Sinking 5cm Real Roach is the compact version of Europe's first true glider lure—a multi-award-winning design that rewrote the rules for jerkbait fishing. Its unique profile and one-of-a-kind swimming action trigger strikes from pike, perch, zander, and bass in both still and flowing water.

No wrong way to fish it

Whether you work it with classic walk-the-dog twitches, slow glides, or aggressive rips, the Slider responds with an erratic side-to-side motion that mimics a disoriented baitfish. The sinking version lets you cover the entire water column from surface to 1 m, making it ideal for exploring drop-offs, weed edges, and ambush zones.

Realistic Real Roach finish

The lifelike roach pattern combines natural colour gradients with reflective scales to imitate one of Europe's most common prey fish. In clear water and high-pressure conditions, this subtle realism often outperforms flashier designs.
