Not many like the zmans, I thought the opposite.Kadmium wrote:I like the zman paddle tails in a candy red colour. Use a fairly heavy jig head so you stay on the bottom for flatties. They aren't a finese type fish. Ambush predators that sit and smash anything that comes past.
A heavy jig with a slow rolling retrieve and short pauses should see you on to some flatties.
Not many people like the zmans but I love em. Very good action and indestructable. Just DO NOT mix them with anything else. Keep in their original package or they will melt. Also, super glue helps keep them snugged up on the jig. Just a drop.

I suppose in my view not many people like them because they melt everything they touch
