Balzer Shirasu Booster Shad 6cm Amber

Balzer Shirasu Booster Shad — UV Bite Points That Work in Any Water Clarity

The Balzer Shirasu Booster Shad (soft bait / rubber lure) is a versatile predator lure designed for jigging, drop-shotting, and spinning after pike, zander, and perch. The 6 cm Amber variant is a compact, precise tool for targeted predator fishing in a wide range of conditions.

Three UV-Active Strike Triggers

The eyes, pectoral fins, and tail fin are UV-active and contrasting in colour against the body decor. These three distinct bite-point highlights create additional attraction for predatory fish, making the lure particularly effective in turbid or coloured water where visibility is low — yet still visible to fish at distance.

Confident Action in Clear and Coloured Water

Despite its compact 6 cm length, the Booster Shad produces a seductive swimming action that draws reaction strikes from pike, zander, and perch alike. Its design performs equally well in clear water, so you can rely on the same lure across rivers, lakes, and canals regardless of season or conditions.
