Balzer Shirasu Swimbait Pike Factory

Balzer Shirasu Swimbait Pike Factory — Predator Action Built for Pike and Zander

The Balzer Shirasu Swimbait Pike Factory is a 15 cm three-section swimbait designed to trigger strikes from pike and zander through a naturally fluid, rolling action that imitates a wounded baitfish.

Lifelike Movement from a Three-Part Body

The articulated three-section construction gives this swimbait a wide, flowing body roll on the retrieve. Each joint transfers energy smoothly to the tail, producing a consistent swimming action whether you're working it steadily or with erratic rod movements. This natural movement profile makes it effective even when fish are pressured and cautious.

Versatile Presentation Options

The Shirasu Swimbait Pike Factory covers three key techniques in one lure. A straight retrieve produces a steady swimming action ideal for covering open water; twitching and jerking creates an irregular fleeing-baitfish presentation; and trolling along weed edges or structure keeps the lure in the strike zone over extended areas. Two spare tails are included, so you can keep fishing after a hard take rather than reaching for a new lure.

Choose the Right Variant

All variants share the same 15 cm body length and slow-sinking buoyancy, giving them a consistent sink rate suited to targeting pike and zander at medium depths. Weight differences between variants affect casting distance and sink speed — lighter models work better for shallower presentations or lighter tackle, while heavier versions cast farther and sink faster into deeper holding areas. Colour selection lets you match local baitfish or visibility conditions.

Zander colour, 36 g — natural finish tuned for zander; medium weight suits mid-depth spinning and jerking
Rainbow trout colour (Regenbogenforelle), 42 g — high-contrast pattern, heavier weight for longer casts and deeper trolling runs; rigging: spinning, jerking, trolling
33 g variant — lightest option, ideal for shallower water, lighter spinning rods, and slower sink presentations
