Hybrida Zanderkönig Junior

The Smaller Zanderkönig - When Zander Want It Compact

The Hybrida Zanderkönig Junior is the smaller version of the popular zander plug, sharing all the same characteristics as the larger model - just in a reduced size. It carries the same proven action and uncompromising quality, but at 8.5 cm and 9 g it is the ideal choice for targeting zander hunting in shallow water - especially in summer, when they have locked onto small baitfish.

Subtle Action at the Slowest Retrieve

The Hybrida Zanderkönig Junior tracks reliably and cleanly even at the slowest retrieve speeds, which is particularly important when fishing plugs at night. In those conditions, keeping the lure in the fish's field of view for as long as possible is often the key. The Zanderkönig Junior lends itself perfectly to a very slow retrieve, developing a subtle action that draws strikes even from cautious, hesitant predators. It stays very shallow throughout and can be fished beautifully along rock piles, over shallow sandbars and at other shallow-water spots.

Not Just for Zander

The 8.5 cm length and slim profile make the Hybrida Zanderkönig Junior attractive to more than just zander. Perch and asp take it readily too. And although it is designed for slow fishing, you can also work it at a faster pace - something asp respond to particularly well.

Built for Long Casts Too

Zander fishing with plugs usually means working close in, but asp in particular can demand extra casting distance. To deliver that, the Hybrida Zanderkönig Junior is fitted with a magnetic long-cast system. On the cast, the weight shifts rearward to generate extra acceleration, resulting in long, precise casts. A sharp flick of the rod tip on entering the water releases the weight, which slides back to its starting position for excellent balance. Magnets hold it firmly in place once it gets there.

Considered and Effective Colour Patterns

The Hybrida Zanderkönig Junior comes in a well-thought-out range of colour patterns, each with proven track records and specific advantages in different situations.

• Black & Purple - strong contrast pattern, ideal for clear water at night
• Crystal Sugar - natural, bright silhouette for clear to slightly coloured water and changing light conditions
• Olive-Chartreuse - combines UV activity with subtle contrast for lightly to moderately coloured water, dark nights and spots without artificial light
• Original Olivgrün - versatile classic with a strongly UV-active belly for visibility in coloured water, but suited to all water colours and visibility conditions
• UV Zander - the most vivid pattern, with high UV content for very dark nights without artificial light and for coloured water
• Weißfisch - natural, translucent baitfish pattern for clear water and wary predators
