[ICAST 2023] Zman ChatterBait Elite EVO – Best FW Hard Lure of Show
Eugene L. 07.29.23
ZMan Fishing had two winners in the New Product Showcase at ICAST this year, first with the Mulletron LT and now this the Z-Man Chatterbait Elite EVO. It features a patented direct head-to-blade connection with Zman’s trademarked hex-shaped ChatterBlade. This chatterbait is designed to start vibrating as soon as anglers start reeling, giving the lure an erratic hunting action. It’s built around a 5/0 custom heady-duty needlepoint black nickel hook and is equipped with a stainless-steel blade. This blade is offered in plated, painted, and glitter-coated finishes to mimic forage species.
The 100% silicone skirting is wire-tied for increased durability and longevity. Each chatterbait has a hybrid molded split grip and wire bait keeper letting you securely rig a soft plastic trailer. They will be offered in two sizes 3/8oz and 1/2oz. MSRP on these lures is $9.99, they should be available for purchase this fall.
