Krapal Balance Lure / Pendulum Ice Fishing Jig for Perch, Pike & Zander
Krapal Balance Lure / Pendulum is a professional-grade ice fishing lure manufactured in Ukraine, designed specifically for vertical jigging through the ice. This balance lure, also known as a pendulum lure, is a proven choice for anglers targeting predatory fish in frozen waters.
The Krapal balance lure features a carefully selected range of the most effective fish-attracting colours. These colours have been chosen to provoke strikes from perch, pike and zander, making this lure a versatile addition to any ice angler's tackle box.
Balance lures like the Krapal Pendulum are designed to flutter and dart in a horizontal position when jigged, imitating an injured or fleeing baitfish. This action triggers the predatory instincts of fish holding in deeper water beneath the ice. The lure's weighted body allows it to sink quickly and maintain a natural horizontal presentation on the pause, which is often when the strike occurs.
The Krapal Pendulum is available in three length and weight combinations to suit different fishing conditions and target species:
- 3 cm – 7 g: Ideal for smaller perch and cautious fish in shallow or heavily pressured waters.
- 5 cm – 10 g: A versatile all-round size suitable for perch, zander and smaller pike.
- 7 cm – 19.5 g: A larger, heavier option for deeper water, stronger currents and bigger predators such as pike and large zander.
Each size is balanced to provide a stable, enticing action on the drop and a natural horizontal hold on the pause. The heavier 7 cm version is particularly useful when fishing deeper sections of a lake or reservoir where a faster sink rate is needed to reach the strike zone efficiently.
Whether you are fishing a local pond for perch or targeting zander in a larger water, the Krapal balance lure offers a reliable, fish-catching presentation. Its Ukrainian craftsmanship and proven colour selection make it a strong performer in cold-water conditions.
