Z-man Report
Z-man Chatterbait MiniMax
Everyone is throwing bladed jigs these days so sometimes you need to give the fish a different look and sound.
The downsized Chatterbait MiniMax has a downscaled hex-blade and other componentry, but it has the punch to handle big, tough smallmouth, spotted and largemouth bass.
Turbo-boosted by a thumbnail-sized ChatterBlade, the new ChatterBait MiniMax Compact Bladed Jig is balanced out with a high-grade 2/0 black nickel hook, dual molded conical trailer-keeper and premium wire-tied silicone skirts. Echoing the trademark ChatterBait sound and action on a higher-frequency scale, the MiniMax features Z-Man’s patented direct head-to-blade connection.

New Z-Man Hella CrawZ
Z-Man made fishing fans happy this week by delivering fresh packs of Hella CrawZ to outdoors retailers across the continent.
The new 3.75-inch Hella CrawZ gives anglers a compact, versatile crawfish-profile jig trailer, flipping bait and so much more. The bait’s appeal, in part, resides within its 10X Tough ElaZtech composition. Unlike other craw-baits that tip over and die on the vine, the Hella CrawZ’ buoyant pincers float up and hover in full menace mode. The slightest twitch of the line or faintest underwater flow activates its claws, which wave and flap in the current.

Strike King Rogue and Catawba Polarized Sunglasses
Strike King is back with a new lineup of eyewear, delivering new styles with the Rogue and Catawba polarized sunglasses.
The super hydrophobic top coating of the Rogue lens stops condensation from absorbing into these 100% polarized optics, keeping the angler’s vision free from water obstruction, while several subsequent layers of the lens shed dirt and debris. Most critically, seven separate layers provide anti-reflective defense to fight glare from the sky above, as well as from the surface of the water below. The result is a cleaner, clearer, higher level of subsurface vision, precisely what is most important to the serious angler.

Northland Tackle Report
Walleye caught using Northland’s Baitfish-Image Spinner Rig
Aiming to put more walleyes in your boat this summer? Northland’s time-tested Baitfish-Image Spinner Rig collection can help you do that.
The dynamic Baitfish-Image spinner blades are one of the hottest producers on the professional walleye circuits and have claimed more first-place winners than all other spinner rigs combined!
The secret is the specially-designed lifelike holographic Baitfish-Image attractor blade that matches-the-hatch and mimics a walleye’s favorite meal, a crippled baitfish minnow. The shimmering blades spin, pick up light and reflect the Baitfish-Image back with each revolution to produce the illusion of live bait. It fools wary fish and triggers aggressive strikes.
