Description

The z5’s bigger brother, the z7. At 7 inches, the z7 Glide Shad betters your chances at catching bigger fish. It uses the same body profile as the z5; a thin, slender shape, much like that of a real Gizzard Shad. And, as with all Fish 30acre lures, we focus on hyper realistic details in our designs in hopes to give you the best opportunity to fool weary fish. Its narrow body takes very minimal effort to create a buttery-smooth, wide glide. And, like the z5, the back section of the lure has wings that aid in its ability to stay stable during the glide. You can expect a slow sinking bait with a custom formulated “XTD” resin outer shell (eXtremely Tough and Durable). This XTD resin is virtually shatterproof and allows flex in the thinner parts of the lure. Feel confident knowing your bait won’t chip when casted into rocks, docks, or trees. Its internal harness uses stainless steel components, attached with top-of-the-line split rings and Owner ST36 hooks. The latest offering from Fish 30acre, the z7 Glide Shad.

Field Notes

Best for targeting bigger fish around cover or open water when a realistic shad profile is needed. The bait is designed to glide with very little effort, so use steady casts and gentle rod inputs to create a wide, smooth side-to-side presentation. Its slow-sinking nature also makes it useful for pausing near docks, rocks, and timber.

Pros

  • Hyper-realistic gizzard shad profile
  • Wide, buttery-smooth glide with minimal input
  • Slow sinking for pause-and-glide presentations
  • Durable resin construction for hard cover use

Cons

  • Premium price point
  • Large size may be too much for smaller fish or pressured conditions
