Z-Man HerculeZ Swimbait
READY to get your arms stretched? The new Z-Man 10X Tough HerculeZ pre-rigged soft swimbait is here! Built for barramundi, Murray cod, mangrove jack, flathead, mulloway and other larger predatory species. A collaboration between US Z-Man Fishing Products and Tackle Tactics Australia, the HerculeZ has been developed and refined over a couple of years using sketches, CAD drawings and eventually samples travelling back and forward between countries, with COVID restricting travel and face-to-face meetings. A detailed natural shad body has all the features to represent a wide variety of baitfish, drawing aggressive strikes from predatory species. The unique boot-tail design puts out plenty of thump and vibe, while upturned three-dimensional eyes provide an additional strike trigger. Best of all, this swimbait is made from Z-Man’s amazing 10X Tough ElaZtech material – soft, life-like and supple, buoyant for a natural presentation and virtually indestructible. Built on a tough extra heavy-duty Mustad hook, the HerculeZ is ready to take on the big hitters, with an additional through-wire stainless-steel belly attachment point that is ideal for adding a treble or stinger for additional hook points, or blade for added flash and vibration.
