Balzer Shirasu Clone Shad Softbait 6.5cm UV Trout

Balzer Shirasu Clone Shad — Realistic Softbait for Active Predator Fishing

The Balzer Shirasu Clone Shad is a precision-designed soft plastic lure built for anglers who want maximum realism in a compact, versatile package. The UV Trout colorway at 6.5 cm is a go-to choice for targeting cautious predators in clear water.

3D-Printed Shape with True-to-Life Proportions

The body of the Clone Shad was developed using a 3D printer, producing a baitfish silhouette with near-perfect proportions. Every curve and contour mimics a natural prey fish, giving predators an authentic visual target that is hard to refuse — especially in pressured waters where fish have seen every generic swimbait on the market.

Paddle Tail Action and UV Finish for Maximum Attraction

The paddle tail generates strong pressure waves on the retrieve, triggering strike responses in pike, perch, zander, and other predatory species. The UV Trout finish is finished with a 3D photo print design that replicates a trout's natural coloration, with UV-reactive elements that remain visible and eye-catching even in low-light conditions or off-color water.
