Product description of Westin Platypus Floating minnow 150g 220 mm
class="txt-base descripcion-length" id="js-description">The Platypus Project was a tough assignment for the Scandinavian lure maker Allan Christiansen.
We wanted to keep it all secret and we didn´t even have a name for the lure – only a list of impossible demands, including a lot of X-factor and the best rolling movement ever seen on a lure! When we saw the look of the final prototype the name was obvious due to the resemblance of the beak on a real platypus.
Since its creation by lure maker Allan Christiansen, Platypus became Scandinavi´s leading big pike lure in no time.
And now we´ve answered the clamour from pike specialists for a completely silent big boy with perfect low floating buoyancy.
Fish it extremely slow and it still got the famous Westin Roll.
At a pause in the retrieve, it hangs and slowly rises in the water – very appealing to large, tricky predators.
´´It took me 32 different proto types and countless hours of testing and ad- justing to achieve what I was looking for.
The result is a unique lure with an incredible action and swimming pattern – even when fished at extreme slow speed for tricky pike during the coldest part of spring.
When fished at high speed the action of the lure is just as incredible.
I have no doubt that this will become a classic big fish lure in the future.
