About this piece
The Eclipse Balor 90 is a surface-oriented pencil bait designed for slow, deliberate retrieves in shallow water. Its unique head shape grabs water to provide steady resistance, making it easy to feel current changes even for anglers who struggle with sinking pencils. The lure produces a light, fluttering swing action with a relaxed cadence that irresistibly triggers surface-feeding predators.
Key features
- Slow-sinking pencil bait optimized for surface and ultra-shallow presentations
- Head design provides tactile resistance to help anglers read current flow
- Produces a subtle, fluttering swing action with a wide tail wag
- Upward-swept tail and balanced weighting enhance buoyancy and lift

Best for
- Targeting sea bass in shallow harbors, river flats, and tidal zones
- Imitating surface prey like baitfish fry, whitebait, and clam worms
- Fishing high-activity fish that are locked onto the surface layer
- Confidently working snaggy, ultra-shallow structure without hanging up
