Product Details and Uses

Westin Swim SW Glidebait (Sinking) – 12cm 60g

The Saltwater Heavyweight: Distance, Durability, and Dominance

The original Westin Swim is a legend in the pike world, but for the Saltwater (SW) Edition, Westin has turned this glidebait into a bulletproof coastal assassin. This isn’t just a repainted freshwater lure; it is a reinforced, high-density weapon designed to survive the salt and target the hardest-hitting predators in the ocean.

At 60g, this 12cm “Sinking” model is a phenomenal caster. Its compact, aerodynamic shape allows it to punch through a Force 6 gale like a bullet, reaching offshore reefs and distant tidal rips that other lures simply can’t touch. Whether you are a seasoned pro or a complete beginner, the Westin Swim is incredibly easy to master—it features a built-in unique S-curve action that triggers strikes on a simple steady retrieve.

Why the SW Edition is a Must-Have:

Armoured Construction: Features a full wire-through-body design. If a monster fish manages to crush the ABS body, you are still connected to the hooks.
Salt-Grade Hardware: Upgraded with extra-strong, corrosion-resistant saltwater hooks and heavy-duty split rings designed for high-performance sea fishing.
Erratic “Panic” Action: Use a “pull and wind” retrieve to make the lure dart side-to-side like a dying mackerel. On the pause, it sinks with a tantalizing shimmy that often triggers the strike.

Where to Use the Westin Swim SW 12cm in the UK

Deep Rock Marks (Cornwall & West Wales): The 60g sinking weight is perfect for getting down into the strike zone when fishing off deep rock ledges for Specimen Bass and Pollack. It holds its depth brilliantly even in a heavy swell.
The Bristol Channel: In the heavy silt and “chocolate” water of the Severn Estuary, the wide-profile silhouette and heavy vibrations of the Westin Swim help predators find the lure when visibility is near zero.
Morecambe Bay Channels: For our local anglers, this is a “secret weapon” for fishing the deep-water channels at low tide. Its casting weight allows you to reach the far side of gulleys where big Bass wait for the push of the tide.
Tropical Travel: If you are heading abroad from the UK to target GTs, Snook, or Tarpon, this is the perfect “cross-over” lure. It’s tough enough to handle the tropics but refined enough for our home waters.
Specimen Pike: Don’t be afraid to use the SW version in freshwater! The extra-strong hooks are a massive advantage when targeting 30lb+ Pike on large glacial lakes like Windermere.

The Gerry’s Fishing Verdict:

The Westin Swim SW is one of the toughest lures in our shop. It is “foolproof”—you don’t need fancy rod work to make it look alive. If you need a lure that casts to the horizon and can stand up to the most “brutal” saltwater battles, this is the one to tie on.
