The Z-Man SlingbladeZ Double Willow spinnerbait is a testament to high-quality fishing gear, purposefully crafted by acclaimed angler Luke Clausen, a Bassmaster Classic and Forrest Wood Cup champion. No detail was overlooked in its design, which aims to meet the rigorous demands of competitive anglers and casual fishers alike.
In its construction, this spinnerbait features the innovative StabilTrack head, a design that has undergone 3D modeling to achieve a lifelike baitfish profile. This strategic engineering affords the lure outstanding performance attributes, such as:
- A low center of gravity, aiding in balance and swim alignment.
- A grooved underbelly (belly groove), functionally integrated to prevent rolling and to optimize water flow.
- Side fins, which contribute to the realism and stability of the lure in motion.
- A light-wire 17-7 stainless steel LiveWire frame, chosen for its exceptional blend of vibration transmission and lasting durability.
- A premium 5/0 O'Shaughnessy VMC hook paired with a wire trailer keeper, which ensures successful hooksets.
- The inclusion of copper wire hand-tied skirting, composed of 100% silicone, which adds realistic movement and appeal to the bait.
- Custom blades with an electroplated jeweler quality finish, which excel in both visual attraction and functionality.
- Detailed multi-color paint schemes that mimic natural prey, bolstering the spinnerbait's effectiveness in various water conditions.
The smooth interplay of these features culminates in a spinnerbait that's not only visually compelling but also mechanically superior in traditional fishing scenarios.
