Balzer Matze Koch UV Booster Crankbait 5cm 0.4m 4g Orange Fire Tiger

Balzer Matze Koch UV Booster Crankbait 5cm – UV-Active Shallow Runner for Trout & Perch

The Balzer Matze Koch UV Booster is a compact 5cm crankbait built for active spin fishing on streams, ponds, and trout lakes — the Orange Fire Tiger colour delivers bold contrast that triggers reaction strikes in a wide range of light conditions.

UV-Active Finish for Maximum Visibility

The lure's UV-reactive coating absorbs and re-emits ultraviolet light, making it visible and attractive to predators even in coloured water, under overcast skies, or during the low-light hours at dawn and dusk. Orange Fire Tiger combines warm orange tones with contrasting tiger markings, a proven pattern when trout and perch are actively hunting.

Shallow Running Depth for Versatile Water Coverage

With a running depth of just 0.4m, this crankbait is purpose-built for searching shallow flats, stream margins, and the surface zones of trout fisheries where fish are feeding close to the top. The compact 5cm body and 4g weight allow for easy casting with light to ultralight spinning gear, keeping the presentation in the strike zone without snagging bottom.

Choose the Right Variant

All variants share the same 5cm length, 4g weight, and 0.4m running depth. Colour choice is the key differentiator — match it to water clarity, light conditions, and target species:

• Orange Fire Tiger — warm-toned, high-contrast pattern; effective in stained or coloured water and on overcast days for trout and perch

• Fire Fly — bright attractor colour suited to clear water and bright conditions

• Blue Melon — cool-toned; a good choice in cold, clear water for trout

• Night Crawler — natural, muted tones; works well under pressured or clear-water conditions

• Lime — high-visibility chartreuse; effective in murky or fast-moving water

• Albino — pale, subtle pattern; ideal in very clear water or when fish are wary

• Blue Arctic — cold blue tones; suited to deep clear lakes and cold-water trout fishing

• Pike — natural baitfish imitation; doubles as a small pike and perch lure

• Green Fire Tiger — green-based contrast pattern; versatile in both clear and coloured water

• Hot Spot — bold accent colours designed to attract in low visibility or deeper stained water
