Westin Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait

A Vibration Bait in the Ricky The Roach Design

The Westin Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait does exactly what the name suggests: it's a vibration bait built around the classic Ricky The Roach profile, fitted with a tungsten weight for a lead-free construction. There's more to it than the name alone, though.

Long-Casting Coverage Across the Water Column

The Westin Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait is available in 2 sizes. Each lure is built around a stainless steel blade fitted with a tungsten weight. The very compact design translates directly into outstanding casting performance - the natural heft of these lures makes them genuine long-distance casters, letting you cover a lot of water. They work across different depths in the water column: a simple straight retrieve lets you search everything from just below the surface right down to near the bottom. If you want to work the bottom more thoroughly, you can also jig them - let the lure sink on a tight line, wind hard and aggressively, then let it fall again. Instead of winding, you can also work it with the rod tip.

2 Attachment Eyes for Different Actions, Plus a Rear Eye

The Westin Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait features 2 eyes on the back, both serving as attachment points for your leader, each producing a distinct action. The front eye gives the lure a higher-frequency wobble and suits faster retrieve styles. The rear eye - which comes pre-fitted with a split ring - produces stronger vibration and is equally well suited to straight retrieves and jigging. The eye at the tail is there for repositioning the rear treble hook or for attaching an additional willow blade for extra attraction.

Innovative Metal Eyes for Visual Appeal and Sound

Another standout feature of the Westin Ricky The Roach Tungsten Vibration Bait is its metal eye. It consists of a stainless steel chamber housing a stainless steel ball that rattles freely, adding both visual stimulus and extra sound. A small detail that could make all the difference when a big predator commits.
