Westin Swim 13.5cm 0–1m 86g Sinking Bling Perch

Westin Swim Glidebait 13.5cm 86g Sinking – Big-Bait Action in the Top Metre

At 13.5cm and 86g, this sinking Glidebait (gliding jerkbait) punches firmly into big-fish territory while staying within 0–1m of the surface – exactly where predators ambush prey. The Bling Perch colour combines flash and natural contrast to draw strikes even in low-visibility conditions.

Effortless S-Curve Action for Any Angler

The Westin Swim's signature S-curve swimming action activates the moment you start winding. Work it on a straight retrieve at varying speeds, add spin-stops, or throw in short rod twitches – it adapts to your style. Slow down and it imitates a dying baitfish; speed up and it becomes a panicking prey trying to escape. No specialist technique required.

Built for Distance and Durability

A long-casting body design and 86g weight load make covering open water and reaching far margins straightforward. Full wire-through-body construction ensures the frame holds firm under the pressure of hard-fighting pike, zander, perch, and asp. Ultra-sharp carbon steel hooks and hand-painted detailing complete a lure built to perform session after session.

Choose the Right Variant

The Westin Swim Glidebait is available across five sizes and three buoyancy types to match your target species, rod setup, and water conditions:

• 6.5cm / 9g – Suspending: Finesse option; ideal for perch and zander on light to medium spinning gear

• 8cm / 16g – Suspending: Versatile mid-range size for perch, zander, and smaller pike; steady or twitched retrieve

• 8cm / 19g – Sinking: Fast-sinking compact profile; good for fishing the column on windy or coloured days

• 10cm / 31g – Low Floating: Stays just below the surface; excellent for shallow reed edges and warmer-water pike

• 10cm / 34g – Sinking: Proven all-rounder for pike and zander; easy to cast on medium-heavy spinning rods

• 12cm / 53g – Suspending: Hangs in the strike zone during pauses; effective for pressured or cold-water pike

• 12cm / 58g – Sinking: Heavier 12cm option for deeper probing within the top metre; strong pike and muskie profile

• 13.5cm / 77g – Suspending: Large-profile bait that holds depth on the pause; targets trophy pike and muskie

• Westin Swim Glidebait 13.5cm / 86g – Sinking – Bling Perch: Maximum 13.5cm casting weight; sinks fast to work the surface layer on the retrieve; Bling Perch colour excels in clear to lightly stained water targeting pike and large perch

• 15cm / 107g – Suspending: Maximum size for dedicated big-bait fishing; pike and muskie on heavy casting or baitcasting rods

• 15cm / 115g – Sinking: Heaviest option for long casts and fast sink on large open-water venues
