Zoom Z4 deep diving cranks

Featured Replies

Hello, I've been considering purchasing a couple Zoom Z4 deep diving cranks. Has anyone used them? If so, how did they work out? Thanks

I got one, but I just haven't tried it much yet. I use the Zoom shallow runners more, I just received 2 more today from Simmons, an E-1 and an E-2. I've looked at these for awhile, and thought they were smaller than they are, I'm glad I ordered it. I think it will be a fun little fat square bill with some tight action.

I've got about 12 total now ;D

Ed really seems to be turning them out, with more models and colors lately. I think 2 models have a rattle in them, the Z-1 and the Killer 2.

I don't think you could go wrong with any Zoom/WEC cranks  :)

I got a classic colored Z4 awhile ago and I used it for a bit before breaking it off on some rip rap.  It was a great crankbait as far as colors that they offered and the action that it had.  The only problem that I had with it is that it was a too light and I could not cast it far.  Casting a deep-diving crankbait far is vital to fishing it correctly as you may know so you can get the maximum depth. 

I think it would be a great crankbait to use in the 10' range, but probably nothing like the 18'-20' range that they recommend because it is so light.

These look similar to the Poe 400. I wonder if there's a difference? It's nice that the Poe's are also 40% less.

I'm not familar with the Poes, I've seen them, just haven't tried one myself.

I have not fished the Poe's in depth, but I believe I have read several complaints about inconsistencies with the bait.
