Z-MAN Bang StickZ 2.5 in. – California Craw (6 pk)

The Z-MAN Bang StickZ is a compact ElaZtech stick bait built for wacky rig, Neko rig, drop shot, and shaky head presentations. At 2.5 inches, it hits a sweet spot for finesse applications — small enough to fool ultra-pressured fish, durable enough to handle dozens of bites per bait. California Craw is a natural, crawfish-inspired green pumpkin/orange color with purple-tinged tips — an ultra-productive finesse color on the West Coast and anywhere bass are keyed on natural forage near the bottom.

Key Features

• 2.5 in. compact ElaZtech stick bait — the ideal finesse size for wacky rig, Neko rig, drop shot, and shaky head on light spinning gear
• ElaZtech construction — 10x tougher than standard soft plastic; survives multiple fish per bait and stays on the hook through repeated casts
• Natural curved body — produces an irresistible side-to-side shimmy and slow, tantalizing fall on any rig
• California Craw color — a natural green pumpkin/orange with purple tips that imitates juvenile crawfish; a legendary finesse color for pressured bass in clear water on the West Coast and across natural crawfish fisheries
• 6 per pack

How to Fish It

Wacky rig on a light wire hook with a small O-ring to save baits, or Neko rig with a 1/32 oz. nail weight for a head-down drop presentation. Fish on light spinning gear with 6–8 lb fluorocarbon around docks, laydowns, and rocky structure. California Craw is the go-to color when bass are holding tight to bottom structure in clear water and need a natural, subtle presentation to commit.
