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.

Not many like the zmans, I thought the opposite.

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

Yes zman is good but do not mix it with anything else. I learned this the hard way
