Product Description

A super-lifelike, salt-impregnated soft jerkbait with a lively, split-tail design that perfectly emulates erratic baitfish action, Z-Man Jerk ShadZ can be rigged weightless to achieve a slow, flutter presentation, or bottom bounced on a weighted hook or jighead. The 5" Jerk ShadZ is ideal for popular inshore targets like redfish, seatrout, flounder, and snook, while freshwater bass anglers have found it to be effective as both a surface twitchbait for largemouth and a dropshot bait for outsized smallmouth. The 4" size is perfect for dropshotting or damiki rigging and was the bait of choice for Elite Series angler Jeff "Gussy" Gustafson in winning both the 2023 Bassmaster Classic and the 2021 Bassmaster Elite event on the Tennessee River. Like other baits from Z-Man, the Scented Jerk ShadZ are 10X Tough made from ElaZtech, allowing them to outfish the competition by catching more fish per bait than any other soft jerkbait on the market!

  • 10X Tough ElaZtech construction for extreme durability, even in the harshest saltwater environments
  • Salt-impregnated, split-tail jerk shad body with hook slot for weedless rigging and solid hooksets
  • Impregnated with 100% natural Pro-Cure Mullet Super Gel scent
  • 3 1/2": 5 per pack
  • 4": 5 per pack
  • 5": 5 per pack
  • 7": 4 Per Pack
  • Made in the USA
