About this piece
The Zeake Z-Bit is a shore-slow metal jig made from zinc alloy, which has a lower specific gravity (8.6) than lead. This allows a larger silhouette than a lead jig of the same weight while maintaining excellent casting distance thanks to its rear-weighted, asymmetrical body design. The jig sinks slowly with a stable horizontal fall, and even a straight retrieve produces a fluttering, flashing action that attracts fish.
Key features
- Zinc alloy construction (specific gravity 8.6) for slow, controlled sink rate
- Rear-weighted asymmetric body design maximizes casting distance
- Stable horizontal fall appeals to fish during the drop
- Fluttering, flashing action on straight retrieves
- Vertically set eye allows wide hook movement and enhances hook-up efficiency on the fall
Best for
- Shore slow jigging and casting from beaches, rocks, and piers
- Targeting a variety of saltwater species such as sea bass, flatfish, and mackerel
- Shallow to mid-depth waters where a slow fall is needed
