Frequently Asked Questions Which weight of Westin Sølvpilen should I choose? The 16 g variant is suitable for lighter tackle and calmer weather. The 20 g model is a universal choice for coastal conditions. The 24 g version is ideal for longer casts, use in stronger headwinds, and fishing deeper water layers. How deep does the Sølvpilen run? There is no fixed fishing depth, as the depth of a sinking lure is controlled by the sinking time, retrieve speed, and rod position. Longer sinking and slower retrieve will bring the lure deeper. What fish can be caught with the 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 the Sølvpilen. Should the lure be maintained after use in saltwater? Yes. Rinse the lure, hook, and split rings with clean freshwater after saltwater use and let them dry before placing in the tackle box. This helps reduce corrosion of metal parts. When is the Westin Sølvpilen the right choice? The 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 deeper spots, rocky areas, and the edges of the shoreline. In very shallow water or when a slow, near-surface presentation is needed, a floating wobbler may be more suitable. If you want stronger side-to-side wobble and horizontal sinking during the pause, consider a wider or bulkier coastal lure. Recommendations Select the lure weight according to wind conditions and your rod’s casting test. In calm weather, the 16 g Sølvpilen allows for a softer presentation, while the 24 g model cuts through headwinds better and helps cover a larger fishing area. The 20 g variant is a universal choice. Start with a steady, medium-speed retrieve. If fish do not respond, add short accelerations and pauses. During retrieve pauses, let the lure sink in a controlled way, but keep contact with the line to detect bites during the sinking phase. In shallow, rocky water, keep the rod higher and start retrieving immediately after the lure hits the water. After fishing in saltwater, rinse the lure with freshwater. Check the hook sharpness, double split ring, and lure surface, as contact with rocks and salt water can wear down the details. Replace any damaged hooks or rings before your next fishing trip. Long-casting metal lure for sea trout and salmon fishing The Westin Sølvpilen combines a slim sand eel-imitating profile, a zinc body, and a weight distribution suitable for long casts. Three sizes and a diverse color range allow you to adapt the lure for calm weather, strong headwinds, and different depths at coastal fishing spots.
