Z-Man baits sweep up in bass fishing awards voted on by trade and anglers

Z-Man’s products have been given the seal of approval from bass anglers and members of the industry across the US.

The Ladson, South Carolina-based lure maker won four accolades in the 2021 Viewer’s Choice Awards organised by Tackle Warehouse, the leading online supplier of bass fishing gear in the region.

“In the digital shopping space, Tackle Warehouse has firmly established itself as a go-to source for leading-edge fishing tackle among consumers worldwide. It’s why the Viewer’s Choice Awards carry so much credibility,” said Glenn Young, National Sales Manager at Z-Man. “Thousands of votes from TW fans, who also happen to vote with their wallets, provide a pretty strong testimonial about their affection for Z-Man baits.”

The awards include two voter groups ­– consumers and the fishing industry, comprised of staff at TW, Tactical Bassin’ Tackle Tour and Bass University.

“The participation and responses for the awards has been incredible,” said Alexi Piatek, Web Content Manager for TW. “They have definitely shone much extra, well-deserved light on some really cool products with Z-Man certainly among them.”

Among the category-winning products, Z-Man took top honours in the Best New Jig/Bladed Jig for its Big Blade ChatterBait (main picture); Best New Worm/Miscellaneous Soft Plastic for the Turbo FattyZ; Best New Craw/Creature Bait for the Hella CrawZ (above); and Best New Fishing Hooks/weights & Jig Heads for the Football Ned Z (below).
