ZMAN ZWG™ Weighted Swimbait Hook

A simple solution for easily rigging—and securely holding—ElaZtech® swimbaits, the ZWG™ Weighted Swimbait hook features an innovative plastic keeper molded on the neck of the hook that pins plastics in place, even on hard casts and missed strikes. Built around heavy-duty black nickel hooks with double-tapered needlepoints, ZWG hooks include a silicone bead to reduce the need for Texposing and are embossed with weights for easy identification.

A custom, refined, heavy duty EWG swimbait hook designed to grip and hold ElaZtech superplastics, the ZWG Weighted Swimbait Hook works equally well with conventional soft plastics. Conical molded plastics keeper positioned on neck of hook is easy to rig and locks bait nose in place, enhancing hookup ratios and preventing baits from sliding down after missed strikes. Positioning the hookpoint perfectly, a silicone bead also keeps the bait aligned without the need to ‘Tex-pose’ rig. Dual-tapered hookpoint maintains sticky sharpness, while its black nickel-plated finish yields excellent corrosion resistance. Slim weight profile allows baits to slide over effortlessly for easy rigging (weight stamped on lead for quick ID).
