Balzer Pike Buddy Swimbait 13cm 55g Slow Sinking

Balzer Pike Buddy Swimbait 13 cm / 55 g — Slow-Sinking Action for Trophy Pike

The Balzer Pike Buddy is a hard-bodied swimbait engineered specifically for predatory pike fishing. At 13 cm and 55 g, this slow-sinking lure cuts through the water column with a fluid, S-curve action that big pike find hard to resist.

Irresistible S-Curve Swimming Action

Whether you twitch it aggressively or retrieve it steadily, the Pike Buddy responds with a lifelike, side-to-side S-curve motion. This natural swimming action closely mimics injured baitfish, triggering reaction strikes from wary, pressured pike in both open water and structured environments.

Ball-Bearing Treble Hooks That Reduce Losses

Both treble hooks are mounted on ball-bearing swivels, allowing them to rotate freely during the fight. This reduces leverage on the hook points and significantly lowers the chance of the lure being thrown — keeping more fish pinned all the way to the net. A spare tail is included in the box, giving the lure extra longevity.
