Short Overview

The Salmo SD5S Slider Sinking 5 cm is a compact jerkbait lure with a distinctive gliding action that effectively triggers predator strikes. It is designed for spinning anglers looking for a reliable lure for pike and zander, especially when precise presentation and control in the water column are required.

Description

The Slider is one of Salmo’s best-known models, and the SD5S sinking version particularly stands out when worked with techniques such as twitching, jerking, steady retrieve, and stop&go presentation. Thanks to its compact 5 cm body and stable action, it is an excellent choice for covering shallow and mid-water layers, as well as for situations when predators respond to side gliding and short direction changes.
