Description
The Westin Stinger 1X7 (often called the Westin Add-It Stinger 1X7 or Pro Stinger 1X7) is a single-hook stinger rig designed to increase the hook-up ratio when fishing with soft plastic lures for toothy predators like pike and zander.
It is a ready-to-use component that adds a rear hooking point to a lure, complementing the main jighead hook.
Key Features
- Type: Single Stinger Rig (one treble hook).
- Wire Construction: Made from durable 1×7 steel wire (7-strand steel wire), often specified as AFW Surfstrand material. This construction provides excellent abrasion and bite resistance.
- Purpose: To be mounted behind the main jig head or screw-in head on a soft lure. It ensures successful hook-ups when a predator strikes the tail section of the bait.
- Hooks: Features a single, ultra-sharp and strong treble hook.
- Components:
- Split Ring: At the front, for easy attachment to the eye of a jighead or the loop of a bait screw.
- Stinger Spike/Pin: A small spike is included along the wire to fix the stinger securely into the soft plastic lure’s body, preventing it from swinging out of position.
- Shrink Tubing: Often used over the crimped sleeves for a neat, smooth finish and to protect the main wire connection.
