Frequently Asked Questions Which weight of Westin Sølvpilen should I choose? The 16 g version is suitable for lighter gear and calm weather. The 20 g model is a universal choice for coastal conditions. The 24 g variant is ideal for longer casts, use in strong headwinds, and fishing deeper water layers. How deep does Sølvpilen work? There is no fixed fishing depth, as the depth of a sinking lure is controlled by sinking time, retrieve speed, and rod position. A longer sinking time and slower retrieve will bring the lure deeper. What fish can be caught with Sølvpilen? The lure is primarily designed for sea trout, but is also suitable for salmon and other predatory fish that feed on slim baitfish. According to the manufacturer, salmon have also been caught from the shore with Sølvpilen. Should the lure be maintained after use in saltwater? Yes. Rinse the lure, hook, and split rings with fresh water after use in saltwater, and let them dry before placing in the tackle box. This helps reduce corrosion of metal parts. When is Westin Sølvpilen the right choice? Sølvpilen is a great choice for coastal fishing when sea trout or salmon are feeding on sand eel and other slim-bodied baitfish. The compact metal body is ideal for long casts and helps reach distant drop-offs, rocky areas, and the edges of the coastal zone. In very shallow water or when a slow, surface-level presentation is needed, a floating minnow may be a better choice. If you want stronger side-to-side wobble and horizontal sinking during a retrieve pause, consider a wider or bulkier coastal lure. Recommendations Choose the lure weight according to the wind and your rod's casting test. In calm conditions, the 16 g Sølvpilen allows for a softer presentation, while the 24 g model handles headwinds better and helps cover a larger fishing area. The 20 g variant is a good all-round choice. Start with a medium-speed steady retrieve. If fish do not respond, add short accelerations and pauses. During a retrieve pause, let the lure sink in a controlled manner, but keep contact with the line to detect bites during the fall. In shallow rocky water, hold the rod higher and start retrieving immediately after the lure hits the water. After fishing in saltwater, rinse the lure with fresh water. Check the hook sharpness, double split ring, and lure surface, as contact with rocks and saltwater can wear down details. Damaged hooks or rings should be replaced before the next fishing trip. Long-casting metal lure for sea trout and salmon fishing Westin Sølvpilen combines a slim sand eel-imitating profile, a zinc body, and weight distribution suitable for long casts. Three sizes and a diverse range of colors allow you to adapt the lure for calm weather, strong headwinds, and different depths of coastal fishing spots.
