Use fish strips, squid strips or cold-water shrimp (Reker) on the two freely swinging single hooks. The hooks let the bait move naturally, while squid strips offer a tough texture and their own scent as an alternative to fish or shrimp.
It is a saltwater-only lure for Nordic coastal and offshore fishing, including the North Sea and Baltic Sea. The supplier lists wolffish, cod, saithe, ling, tusk, halibut, redfish and squid, with bottom fishing for wolffish a particular focus, so it is not intended as a freshwater lure.
Choose between 100 g, 150 g and 200 g, with one fluo-orange lure and two freely swinging single hooks in each pack. The 100 g is the lightest, 150 g is intermediate and 200 g is the heaviest option for maintaining bottom contact. Match the weight to depth and current, as no fixed working depths are specified.
Yes, the supplier describes a straightforward setup without elaborate animation techniques. Bait the swinging single hooks and fish directly on the bottom, especially for wolffish. Gentle lifts can add movement, so beginners can concentrate on a simple bottom presentation.
Rinse the lure thoroughly with fresh water after saltwater use, then store it dry. Removing salt and avoiding damp storage helps prevent hook corrosion, so this care is relevant after every sea-fishing session.

The Balzer Raichiku is a fluo-orange sea fishing lure with two freely swinging single hooks. These let added natural bait move freely rather than holding it rigidly, making the lure suited to bottom fishing for wolffish and other marine bottom fish. Originally developed in Japan, the concept was adapted by Balzer and Rainer Korn for Nordic sea fishing.
Bait the single hooks with fish strips, squid strips or cold-water shrimp (Reker). Fish strips provide a versatile option, while squid strips offer their own scent and a tough texture. The swinging hooks allow these baits to move naturally in the water.
Fish the Raichiku directly on the bottom, particularly for wolffish. Gentle lifts can add movement without requiring elaborate lure animation, so it is also suitable for anglers new to sea fishing.
The Raichiku is intended for saltwater only, from shallow coastal water to greater depths in Nordic seas, including the North Sea and Baltic Sea, as well as offshore fishing. Alongside wolffish, the supplier lists cod, saithe, ling, tusk, halibut, redfish and squid as targets.
All three versions share the fluo-orange colour and two freely swinging single hooks. The 100 g version is the lightest choice, 150 g is the intermediate weight, and 200 g provides the most weight where maintaining bottom contact requires it. Choose according to depth and current rather than a fixed depth rating, as none is supplied. Each pack contains one lure in the selected weight.
Rinse the lure thoroughly with fresh water after fishing to remove salt, then store it dry to help prevent hook corrosion.
