The Salmo Slider is a jerkbait, also known as a "glidebait". Since its introduction in 2002, it has been and remains the absolute best-selling lure.
The unique shape and action of the Salmo Slider have made it not only one of the most outstanding, but also the most copied lure on the European market.
This lure is a true virtuoso in the large family of lures, all designed for large predators. Left and right, left and right: the Slider's flexible dance, leading predators to passionate crimes!
While the Slider is typically retrieved with energetic and swift rod jerks, this jerkbait works well with many different retrieve styles.
Before actual fishing, you should always make a few casts and practice retrieving in clear water to observe the Slider's behavior and adjust your timing.
Once you master it, the Salmo Slider will swiftly turn from side to side, each turn forming a right angle to the retrieve direction. Do not let the line slack after each jerk – it is important to keep the line taut so you can set the hook.
The Salmo Slider is available in 7 and 10 cm sizes, as well as floating (F) and sinking (S) versions.
