Balzer Matze Koch MK Zanderscheuche Crankbait 11cm 15g Albino

Balzer Matze Koch MK Zanderscheuche Crankbait 11 cm / 15 g – A Suspending Wobbler Built for Zander

The Zanderscheuche ("zander scarecrow") is a purpose-designed suspending crankbait that covers slow, methodical retrieves all the way to aggressive twitching – deadly on zander, especially after dark. The Albino colourway delivers a bright, high-contrast silhouette that stands out in low-light and night sessions.

Suspending Action That Turns Pauses Into Bites

At rest or during a stop-and-go retrieve, the Zanderscheuche hangs motionless in the water column at around 1 m depth. This classic suspender behaviour is where most strikes happen: zander follow the lure and commit the moment it freezes. The slow-sink neutral buoyancy also lets you fish it at a near-crawl across rocky or structural bottom – a go-to tactic for night sessions over riprap and stone banks.

Built-In Steel-Ball Rattle and Cast & Balance System

Internal steel balls serve a dual purpose: they generate a low-frequency rattle that predators can detect in turbid or dark conditions, and their shifting weight activates the Cast & Balance system to extend casting distance even into headwinds or crosswinds. The result is a lure that works hard at range without sacrificing the delicate pause action close in.

Choose the Right Variant

All variants share the same 11 cm body, 15 g weight, 1 m running depth and suspending action. Choose your colour to match the conditions and target species:

• Zander – natural zander-flank imitation; clear to lightly stained water, daytime sessions

• Confi Kauli – baitfish-pattern; versatile for mixed predator water

• Fireshark – hot orange/red accents; coloured or murky water, overcast days

• Mai Tai – warm exotic tones; canal and river zander in moderate clarity

• Metallica – metallic flash finish; bright conditions, clear water

• Black Albino – dark silhouette; night fishing, dark-bottomed venues

• Grundel – goby imitation; rocky bottom, river fishing, zander and perch

• Barsch – perch-pattern; mixed perch and zander sessions
