Zman Slim Swimz Fishing Lure 3 Inch

Built to tempt bigger bream, bass and flathead with a slim baitfish profile and tight-kicking paddle tail that swims at dead-slow speeds.

The Zman Slim Swimz 3 Inch scales up the proven 2.5" profile for anglers targeting larger fish or matching bigger bait in estuaries, canals, impoundments and inshore reefs. Its thin body is easy for fish to inhale, while the refined paddle tail and narrow wrist deliver instant thump and a natural shimmy that turns lookers into biters in clear or pressured water.

Crafted from buoyant 10X Tough ElaZtech, the Slim Swimz remains soft and lively yet incredibly durable, standing tail-up on the bottom and hovering on the pause to stay in the strike zone longer. Whether you slow-roll across flats, twitch through schools or hop down drop-offs, this all-round paddletail covers water efficiently and draws confident eats from bream, bass, yellowbelly, flathead, mangrove jack and more. Perfect your presentation and hook your next upgrade fish with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

What retrieve works best for the 3 Inch Slim Swimz?
A slow-roll close to the bottom with occasional twitches and pauses. The buoyant tail lifts on the pause and often draws the bite.

How do I choose jighead sizes?
Match depth and current: #1/0 for shallow/light current, stepping up to #2/0–#3/0 when you need more weight or casting distance.

Can I fish it weedless around racks and weed?
Yes. Rig on a ChinlockZ or SnakelockZ Finesse #1/0 to slip through cover while keeping the tail kicking freely.

Will ElaZtech last longer than regular plastics?
ElaZtech is extremely tough and elastic, delivering superior durability and action so you catch multiple fish per lure.
