Review: Awesome Baits! - One of my favorite plastic colors for Redfish a d trout. Only thing is, this is one of the "few" jig head and plastic combo where the ball jig and/or eye color can make an enormous difference (I paint "all" of mine with Pro-Tech Powder Paint! . This is what I typically do (see pic)......and the fish will eventually tell "ME"which one they want.
Review: Toughest Soft Swimbait - The Good: - Solid colors - More stretchy than other swimbaits - Tough - Realistic action The Bad: - Feels very sturdy like the paddle could be a little bigger to promote wider swimming action/vibration Note(s): The z-man minnowz is my favorite soft swimbait. It is very tough and can take a lot of abuse. It has a very nice stretch which reduces the chances of losing a tail on a short bite. Ran into a boil once and one of these lures landed me over 30 stripers and it was only a little tore up. This is worth the money, it will last 2-3 times as long as the cheapie soft swimbaits.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bass and Pickerel love this lure
*by E***Z on June 9, 2024*

I love Z-man products. The minnowz are a perfect swimbait. I love how the dorsal "fin" of the minnowz acts as a hook hider so one can stay very weedless when rigged with an ewg style hook. The Z-man stuff is 10x strong and lasts all day, the next day and then some. I only usually have to replace when I lose the rig. It's not often I replace the lure because it rips or tears. The electric chicken color resembles panfish in my creeks so I love it for early spring fishing when the panfish are extra colorful and when the water is slightly stained so the fish can see the lure.
