I like its action wacky rigged, think it is a bit different than the others because of the narrow middle section.  Just my opinion though

Yeah, they look really good in the water.

    Strike King Ocho is my favorite. I wish Berkley would try again with the Havoc Flat Dawg concept. That thing was a fish catching machine, if you could keep it on the hook long enough. They were so fra

Yum Dinger, Zoom magnum finesse worm, and a R. I. Pocket Rocket.

I like using mostly senkos, Berkley max scent, and yum dingers.  However, a zoom pumpkin magnum swamp crawler has caught a of lot wacky rigged bass.  Especially in clear water

So no one has tried wacky rigging a Zman huh?

 

I foresee an experiment next season.

I have. Suprisingly, the Zinkerz have decent action. With the extreme buoyancy of the elaztech I expected the action to be crummy. But no, It has a slow fall and a slight wiggle. I can see it working  well in shallow water, since it sinks so slow. I'll definitely give them another shot (didn't catch a fish on em) but for now i still prefer the senko and xzone center stick.

Do you think inserting it with a nail weight so that it’s like a neko rig would be effective? I’m tempted to try it with a zinker, big trd, or even a giant trd version.

I have used the Zman with a weighted wacky hook.  It worked well.  It does have decent action with the floating worm working against the weight pulling it down.

I kind of do that with the finesse trd. 1/32 oz nail weight with a size 2 EWG. So a texas rig/neko rig hybrid. I believe they call that the tiny child rig. It definitely would work with the larger TRD offerings too. I dont really throw the neko rig but I'm sure the zman baits are quite popular for neko because of the floating tails.
