Megabass I-Slide 187 R SW Sinking: The Ultimate S-Motion Predator Magnet

At Gerry’s Fishing, we know that when you’re hunting “monster” class predators, presence and realism are everything. The Megabass I-Slide 187 R SW Sinking is a precision-engineered 18.7cm swimbait designed to trigger the predatory instincts of specimen Bass and Pike. This redesigned “R” version features a retuned internal balance and a refined hinge system, making it more responsive and stable than ever before.

The “SW Sinking” model is specifically weighted to handle ever-changing coastal currents and tidal flows. Its density allows it to sink slowly through the water column, reaching big fish that are holding deep or are too wary to commit to a surface strike. On a straight retrieve, it performs a seductive, sinuous S-shaped slalom. Add a twitch of the rod or a snap of the reel handle, and it executes a wide, erratic glide that mimics a panicked baitfish—often the exact trigger needed for a following predator to strike.

Where to Use the I-Slide 187 R SW Sinking

This heavyweight swimbait is a “search and destroy” tool for large-profile predators:

Tidal Estuaries & River Mouths: The sinking density is perfect for “staying in the zone” during strong tidal flows. It tracks accurately through complex currents where lighter swimbaits would be swept off course.
Deep Lake Drop-offs & Pike Marks: When Pike are stationed near the bottom of deep ledges, let the I-Slide sink to the required depth. Its natural “S” action on the retrieve is irresistible to large hens looking for a calorie-dense meal.
Fishing Over Submerged Structure: The 70g weight allows you to count the lure down to specific depths. You can “trace” the tops of sunken weed beds or rocky outcrops, keeping the lure just above the cover where predators lie in ambush.
Low-Activity Days: When fish are “following” but not attacking, the I-Slide’s ability to perform a 360-degree turn (with a sharp rod snap) can provide a sudden, aggressive visual change that forces a reaction bite from a wary fish.

Gerry’s Pro Tip: To get the absolute best glide out of the 187 R, we recommend using a long, parabolic rod (7’9″ to 8’0″) paired with a high-quality fluorocarbon leader (16lb–20lb). The slight stretch of the fluoro helps “buffer” the S-action, giving the lure a more fluid, natural glide. If you need it to sink faster for deep winter Pike, try adding a few wraps of lead wire to the hook shanks—it’s designed to be easily “tuned” to your specific mark
