Master the art of Midwest finesse with the Z-Man TRD MinnowZ, a slender 3.5-inch baitfish imitation designed to mimic a wide variety of small forage species. Built with Z-Man’s legendary 10X Tough ElaZtech superplastic, this bait offers unmatched durability and extreme buoyancy that keeps it performing long after traditional soft plastics have failed.

The TRD MinnowZ features a unique, small flat tail that provides two distinct actions: it accentuates a darting, quivering movement when rigged vertically or a graceful gliding action when oriented horizontally. This versatility makes it a “must-have” for tournament anglers facing tough conditions or clear-water predators that require a more subtle, natural presentation.

Key Features:

• Anatomical Baitfish Profile: Accurately mimics minnows, fry, and small baitfish preferred by both freshwater and saltwater predators.

• 10X Tough ElaZtech: Delivers extraordinary durability, allowing you to catch dozens of fish on a single lure without tearing.

• Salt-Free Formulation: Ensures extreme buoyancy, allowing the bait to stand up or glide effortlessly for a realistic vertical presentation.

• Versatile Rigging Options: Perfectly suited for a Ned Rig, drop shot, split shot, or even weedless around heavy cover.

• Optimized for Finesse: Pairs seamlessly with Z-Man Finesse ShroomZ, NedlockZ, and Finesse BulletZ jigheads.

• Proven Performance: A top choice for Midwest Finesse enthusiasts (including Ned Kehde) for targeting largemouth, smallmouth, and inshore saltwater species.
