Balzer Shirasu Clone Shad Softbait 6.5cm UV Zander

Balzer Shirasu Clone Shad — Ultraviolet Realism for Wary Zander

The Balzer Shirasu Clone Shad in UV Zander (Gummifisch — soft plastic lure) at 6.5 cm is a compact, finely detailed paddletail designed for active predator fishing, particularly where zander demand a convincing, natural-looking presentation.

3D-Printed Form Meets Photorealistic Finish

The body shape was developed using a 3D printer, producing a near-perfect baitfish profile with accurate proportions. The surface is finished with a 3D photo-print design that mirrors the markings of a real prey fish, giving hesitant predators every reason to commit.

Paddletail Action That Triggers Strikes

The soft paddletail generates pressure waves with even the lightest rod movement or current, creating a lateral line stimulus that draws predators in from a distance. The overall swimming action closely imitates a fleeing or injured baitfish, making it effective for jigging, drop-shotting (lazy style), and spinning — in both clear and turbid water.

Choose the Right Variant

The Clone Shad is available in multiple sizes and colour patterns to match different conditions, target species, and water clarity. Select the combination that best suits your session.

• UV Zander / 6.5 cm / Paddeltail — compact UV-reactive zander colour; ideal for jigging light jig heads in clear to slightly coloured water targeting zander and perch (current product)

• UV Zander / 9 cm / Paddeltail — step up in size for bigger zander or when fish are less active

• UV Zander / 18 cm — larger profile for trophy zander and pike

• UV Perch / 6.5 cm — perch-pattern UV colour; great for perch and zander in clear water

• UV Perch / 9 cm, 12 cm, 15 cm, 18 cm — scaling up through perch patterns for larger targets

• UV Trout / 6.5 cm, 9 cm — trout-coloured UV finish for rivers and clear stillwaters

• UV Roach / 6.5 cm, 15 cm / Paddeltail — roach pattern for pike and zander where roach are the main forage

• UV Pike / 18 cm / Paddletail — large UV pike colour for targeting big pike

• Perch / 6.5 cm, 9 cm, 15 cm, 18 cm — natural perch pattern without UV; effective in bright conditions
