Overview
A VIB (lipless crankbait) is a lure without a diving lip that vibrates hard on the retrieve and sinks quickly. It is a great “search lure” for locating schools of perch, zander and black bass: cast far and count down before retrieving to explore different depths.
The pack contains six different colours in ABS plastic. The supplier listing mentions about 18 g (0.63 oz), but this is a logistics weight: the exact weight of each lure is not confirmed. Effective retrieves: a steady wind, or vertical lifts followed by a drop (“yo-yo”) close to the bottom, where zander often hold.
Limitations: the supplier details neither the exact weight, nor the length, nor the hook type. Like any sinking lure armed with trebles, it snags on cluttered bottoms: use it over sand or gravel, and check local rules on the number of hooks.

Frequently asked questions
How do I fish it for zander?
Cast, let it sink to the bottom, then lift the rod vertically and let it fall back.
Does it sink fast?
Yes, a VIB sinks quickly; count the seconds to choose your depth.
Will it snag?
Yes on snaggy bottoms, because of the trebles and its density.
