Product Description
Westin lure designer Allan Christensen created the first original Platypus lures in 160 and 190mm after 32 different prototypes and countless hours of testing and adjusting. The Westin Platypus 120 mm variant is the versatile lure in the Platypus family. As with the larger family members, this lure features one of the best rolling and belly-flashing swimming actions ever seen on a lure. Another great feature is the Westin Optic Eyes made from colored optical fiber to create a unique – almost illuminating – light reflecting effect.

All Westin lures are of the highest quality. Scandinavian’s definitely know lures. As far as I know North Bay outfitters is the only distributer in Ontario.
All Westins have excellent action, durable non-chip paint and the strongest/sharpest hooks I’ve ever seen on a lure. Seriously, the hooks set themselves. The soft plastics are also extremely durable. Haven’t bought a Rapala since 2017.
The platypus quickly became my go-to for shallow trolling walleye. 10/10
