Z-MAN Finesse TRD 2.75 in. – Mud Minnow (8 pk)

The Z-MAN Finesse TRD (The Real Deal) is the original ElaZtech Ned rig bait that started a finesse revolution. Its compact, cylindrical body and flat-cut tail produce a subtle quivering action on the bottom that triggers strikes from even the most stubborn, pressured bass.

Key Features

• 2.75 in. compact Ned rig profile — the classic size for Ned rig and Midwest finesse presentations
• ElaZtech construction — 10x tougher than standard soft plastic; floats upright on a Ned head for a unique bottom presentation no other material can replicate
• Flat-cut tail — produces a subtle quivering action even with zero rod movement, irresistible to pressured bass
• Mud Minnow color — a natural, earthy brown/tan that imitates mud minnows, gobies, and bottom-dwelling forage; one of the most effective natural Ned rig colors in any water clarity
• 8 per pack — more fish per pack thanks to ElaZtech durability

How to Fish It

Rig on a 1/10–1/6 oz. Ned jig head on light spinning gear with 6–10 lb fluorocarbon. Drag slowly along the bottom, shake in place, or hop along rocky points, gravel flats, and hard bottom structure. Mud Minnow is a natural go-to color in clear water and around hard bottom where gobies and minnows are present.
