Tips from our team of enthusiasts
The Balam Variant 255 shines for its versatility. Available in floating version, thanks to its lip, it allows prospecting from the surface down to 20-30cm deep. If you want to prospect deeper or speed up the retrieve even more, you can add additional weights. Its rigid body combined with an interchangeable soft tail guarantees a pronounced vibration, enhanced by the subtle rattle of its segmentation. It is a big fish magnet that will allow you to trigger bites where other lures leave pike indifferent. Find here the rods and reels suited to use this lure.
Available in various colors ranging from hyper-realistic to hyper-flashy, this swimbait appeals to both passionate big bait anglers and collectors alike.
