Westin Swim SW Glidebait Sinking – 35g 10cm

Westin Swim SW Glidebait (Sinking) – 10cm 35g

The All-Rounder Saltwater Glidebait: Compact, Castable, and Lethal

The Westin Swim SW is the rugged, saltwater-armoured cousin of one of the most successful freshwater lures ever made. While the original was a pike-fishing icon, this “Salty” edition has been re-engineered to survive the corrosive environment and the bone-crushing jaw pressure of sea-going predators.

The 10cm, 35g version is arguably the most versatile in the range for UK anglers. It is heavy enough to “cast like a bullet” into a stiff coastal breeze, yet compact enough to perfectly mimic the size of a panicked sprat, herring, or small mackerel.² Its sinking nature allows you to count the lure down to the desired depth, making it effective from the top of the water column right down to the seabed.

Why the Westin Swim SW is a Coastal Champion:

• “Foolproof” Action: You don’t need to be a pro to work this lure. Whether you use a steady retrieve, a “pull and wind” method, or a frantic jerking motion, the Swim delivers a seductive S-curve glide that fish cannot resist.

• Overbuilt for Battle: Featuring a full wire-through-body construction, this lure is built to stay in one piece during the most “brutal” fights with specimen fish.

• Saltwater Grade Hardware: Fitted with extra-strong, corrosion-resistant saltwater hooks and heavy-duty split rings, ensuring you don’t lose the fish of a lifetime to hardware failure.

Key Specifications

Where to Use the Westin Swim SW 10cm in the UK

• Morecambe Bay & North West Gullies: The 35g weight is perfect for our local “scar” fishing. Use the sinking action to drop the lure into the deeper pools and channels as the tide pushes in, where Big Sea Bass wait to ambush baitfish.

• Dorset & The Isle of Wight: Ideal for fishing over submerged ledges. The compact 10cm profile is a “dead ringer” for the small sprats that draw Bass and Sea Trout close to the shoreline during the summer and autumn.

• The Bristol Channel: In high-turbidity water, the wide-bodied silhouette of the Westin Swim creates a significant “pressure wave” that helps predators track it down through the silt.

• Anglesey & North Wales: A fantastic choice for casting off the rocks into the deep “white water” gullies. Its aerodynamic shape means you can reach the offshore current seams where the predators are most active.

• Inland Reservoirs: Don’t forget its roots! The SW version is an incredible upgrade for Pike and Zander anglers who want the security of saltwater-grade hooks when targeting “crocodiles” on large UK waters.

The Gerry’s Fishing Verdict:

The 10cm Westin Swim SW is a “blank-saver.” It’s the lure you tie on when nothing else is working because its action is so natural and easy to trigger. With the full wire-through-body, it’s a lure that will last you seasons of hard use in the salt.
