For over 30 years, Charleston, SC-based Z-MAN Fishing Products has prided itself on bringing technology to anglers. Since perfecting the coloring and mass production of silicone skirting in the 1980s, Z-MAN has long been one of the industrys largest suppliers of silicone skirt material, but until recently, the Z-MAN name was unfamiliar to many anglers. Today, Z-Mans ElaZtech 10X Tough ElaZtech soft plastics and ChatterBait brand bladed jigs are among the worlds premier freshwater and saltwater baits, positioning the company as one of the fastest growing lure brands in the United States.
