The Westin Mike The Pike Swimbait Lure is built to tempt Australia’s hardest-hitting freshwater predators with one of the most realistic swimbaits on the market. Designed for both casting and trolling, this sinking lure delivers a slow-rolling action that mimics the natural movement of a distressed baitfish — the exact trigger that pushes big fish into attack mode.

Perfect for chasing Murray Cod in rivers, lakes, and impoundments, or targeting Barramundi and Threadfin Salmon in northern estuaries, Mike The Pike is engineered for serious anglers looking for trophy fish. Its running depth of 0.5–1.5m makes it ideal for working snags, weed edges, and shallow predator zones where big fish hunt.

Crafted from durable, lead-free ABS plastic, the lure features lifelike detailing, hand-painted finishes, and semi-soft fins for maximum realism. Optional eyelets allow you to fine-tune the action: a tighter S-shaped swim from the top eyelet or a more pronounced rolling action from the front. Armed with Japanese-style #1/0 carbon steel trebles, Mike The Pike is tough enough to withstand crushing strikes from giant Cod and Barramundi.

If you’re chasing trophy natives in Australia, the Westin Mike The Pike is the swimbait that gets bit.
