It is intended for trout, particularly larger trout, and perch in deeper water. The supplier highlights autumn and winter, when fish hold near the bottom, so it suits a slow presentation below the upper water layers.
Let the sinking lure descend, then retrieve it slowly and evenly. Brief pauses and gentle rod-tip twitches can add variation. It is described as deep-running, but no depth in metres is given, so there is no stated fixed depth to use when choosing it for a venue.
Only the colour differs in the supplied specifications. All eight versions measure 3 cm, weigh 2.3 g and are sinking, deep-running lures. Choose the finish you want without changing those specifications. One lure in that colour is included, not all eight finishes.
Yes. The supplier names trolling as well as casting, and states suitability for saltwater and coastal waters. It is not described as trolling-only, and no trolling speed, depth chart or specific saltwater target species is supplied.
The supplier recommends a medium to slow rod action for an even retrieve, since an overly stiff rod can restrict the lure's movement. It suggests a short wire or fluorocarbon-based leader, with length matched to venue and target fish. A rod and leader are not listed in the one-lure contents.

The Balzer Billy Beetle is a sinking, deep-running wobbler for trout and perch, particularly larger trout holding near the bottom in autumn and winter. Its sinking behaviour lets it descend before a slow, steady retrieve, bringing the lure into deeper layers when fish are reluctant to chase a faster presentation. Every colour version measures 3 cm and weighs 2.3 g.
Let the lure sink, then retrieve it slowly and evenly. Brief pauses and gentle rod-tip twitches can vary the presentation when fish are inactive. The supplier describes use for both casting around deep ledges, undercut banks and current channels, and trolling. No running depth in metres is specified, so it should not be selected on the assumption of a fixed depth.
The supplier recommends a medium to slow rod action to support an even retrieve, noting that an overly stiff rod can restrict the lure's movement. It also suggests a short wire or fluorocarbon-based leader, with leader length chosen for the venue and target fish. These are setup recommendations, not supplied accessories.
The Billy Beetle is also described as suitable for saltwater and coastal areas. This extends its stated use beyond inland trout and perch fishing, but no particular saltwater species or corrosion-resistant material is specified.
The eight finishes are Grün/Schwarz/Pink, Albino, Black Albino, Mystery UV, Pellet, Orange-Schwarz, Pink/Grün/Gelb and Pellet Gelb. Length, weight and sinking, deep-running behaviour remain the same across the range, so choosing another colour does not change those specifications. No colour-specific water-clarity or seasonal recommendations are supplied. Each purchase contains one lure in the selected colour, not a colour assortment.
