Balzer Matze Koch MK Zanderscheuche Crankbait 13cm 1.4m 21g Zander

Balzer Matze Koch MK Zanderscheuche Crankbait — Precision Wobbler for Zander, in Zander Colour

Designed with zander fishing in mind, the MK Zanderscheuche ("Zander Spook") is a suspending crankbait that rewards patient, creative presentations — whether you're working slow retrieves over rock piles after dark or triggering reaction strikes with sharp twitches.

Suspending Action That Turns Hesitation into Bites

The Zanderscheuche runs at 1.4 m and suspends perfectly on pause — it simply hangs in the water column when you stop the retrieve. That moment of stillness is often when zander commit, especially in cold water or when fish are following without striking. Combine a slow wind, a short twitch, and a pause to dial in a rhythm the fish can't ignore.

Steel Ball Rattle and Cast & Balance System

Inside the lure, steel ball rattles send vibrations through the water that stimulate the lateral line of zander — a major advantage when fishing low-light or night sessions over hard structure where these predators ambush prey under cover of darkness. The integrated Cast & Balance System redistributes weight during the cast for long, accurate throws even into a crosswind or headwind.

Choose the Right Colour

All variants share the same 13 cm body, 21 g weight, 1.4 m running depth, suspending action, and steel ball rattle. Colour choice is the key differentiator — match the hatch or go for contrast depending on water clarity and light conditions.

• Zander — natural baitfish tones; ideal for pressured, clear-water zander on main channels and reservoirs

• Mai Tai — warm reddish-pink; effective in stained or coloured water

• Fireshark — high-visibility pattern; suits low-light and murky conditions

• Grundel (Goby) — bottom-dweller imitation; strong choice where gobies are a natural prey item

• Barsch (Perch) — classic perch pattern; covers zander and perch in mixed-species venues

• Metallica — metallic finish; catches light in deeper or slightly turbid water

• Black Albino — dark contrast silhouette; trusted night-fishing and overcast-day choice
