At Gerrys Fishing, we know that matching the hatch is the golden rule of saltwater lure fishing. When the bass are keyed into mid-sized sandeels, the Westin Sandy Fixed SBass in the 11cm 18g variant is your surgical tool of choice. It offers a slightly more finesse profile than its 24g big brother, making it ideal for calmer days, shallower estuaries, or when you need a more delicate presentation to fool wary Sea Trout and Bass.
This isnt just a chuck and wind lure; its a highly engineered piece of kit designed to survive the most unforgiving coastal environments. Wired through for maximum strength, it ensures that even if a double-figure bass smashes it in the white-water surf, the lure wont fail you.
The magic of the SBass lies in its dual-action design. On a fast retrieve, it produces an alluring S-Curve movement that looks exactly like a sandeel swimming for its life. However, the real killer is the fluttering spin-stop. When you pause, the lure shimmies and rotates as it sinks, mimicking a wounded baitfisha visual trigger that predatory bass find impossible to ignore.
Even at 18g, this lure is a wind-beater. The internal weight is carefully positioned to ensure the lure flies straight and true, allowing you to reach those distant reefs and breakers. Because it is constructed from ABS plastic and Zinc, it is entirely lead-free while maintaining the density needed for extreme casting and a detailed, flashing scale line.
In the white-water of the surf or the murky waters of a flooding estuary, visibility isnt always enough. The Sandy Fixed SBass features a built-in rattle that sends out vibrations through the water column. This acoustic signal helps predators locate the lure even when light levels are low or the sea state is chaotic.

The 18g variant is particularly effective in estuarine environments and over shallow rocky reefs. Because it is slightly lighter, you can work it slower in shallow water without snagging the seabed as easily as a heavier jig. Its slim profile and life-like action make it a magnet for Sea Trout, which often prefer a smaller, more realistic sandeel imitation.
The domain of the big bass is often shrouded in darkness. The Sandy Fixed SBass collection includes proven color patterns designed for twilight and full darkness. The detailed flashing scale line catches whatever ambient light is available, while the rattle ensures the fish can hear the lure coming. Its a versatile choice that performs from high-noon sun to the middle of the night.
The Fixed designation means the hook is securely attached to a wire that runs through the entire body of the lure. This provides far superior strength compared to non-wired lures, giving you total confidence when tackling hard-hitting saltwater species that are notorious for shaking hooks or snapping lure bodies.
Gerrys Pro Tip:
To get the most out of the 11cm SBass, try the Burn and Kill retrieve. Reel as fast as you can for 5 or 6 turns to get that S-Curve vibrating, then stop abruptly for a count of two. The lure will flutter and flash on the drop. This sudden change in tempo is usually when a trailing Bass will launch its savage take. If youre fishing in a heavy current, just hold the rod steady and let the tide provide the S-Curve action, only reeling to keep in touch with the lure.
