Z-Man DMIN-368PK5 Diezel Minnowz 4″ Beer Run 5 Pack

Unparalleled softness, action, and ElaZtech® durability merge to create the most bulletproof swimbait on the market. Inspired by Z-Man’s renowned three-inch MinnowZ™, fresh- and saltwater anglers alike will find that the DieZel MinnowZ’s hook slot and split dorsal fin provide easy weedless rigging and problem-free hooksets. Bassheads can present it on umbrella rigs, as swim jig or ChatterBait® trailer, or solo as a swimbait, while inshore fanatics can rig it on a Redfish EyeZ™ or HeadlockZ™ HD jig head or 4/0 EZ KeeperZ™ weedless hook for a lifelike baitfish presentation.
