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 industry&';s largest suppliers of silicone skirt material, but until recently, the Z-MAN name was unfamiliar to many anglers. Today, Z-Man&';s ElaZtech 10X Tough ElaZtech soft plastics and ChatterBait brand bladed jigs are among the world&';s premier freshwater and saltwater baits, positioning the company as one of the fastest growing lure brands in the United States.
