Mullet Run . . . Mulletron!

Mullet Run . . . Mulletron!

Award-Winning Z-Man® Mulletron™ LT Swimbait swims in synch with gamefish blitzes up and down the beach

Ladson, SC (September 18, 2024) – When the autumn mullet run commences, all bets are off. Weddings and anniversaries can wait. Birthdays and bar mitzvahs scheduled around the annual oceanfront event are a little quieter for the lack of anglers in attendance.

Right now, all up and down the East Coast, mass assemblies of finger mullet announce their presence like a million mini dinner bells. Picture the wild watery panorama, the violence, the potential for mayhem-like bites that occur when striped bass—or tarpon, bull redfish or snook— meet their favorite food. Anglers call ‘em blitzes. But head-on collisions might be a better descriptor. Because when migrating mullet clash with battalions of aquatic ogres, beaches bust wide open.

Best arrive armed with a lure that mimmicks the baitfish party . . .

The first true-to-life mullet-pattern swimbait crafted from 10X Tough ElaZtech, the 4.5- and 6-inch Mulletron LT swimbaits move with a lazy, tail-kicking cadence that screams fresh mullet on the menu. Meanwhile, concealed within its extra-tough anatomy, next-level design features give the bait an extra jolt of juice.

  • Line-through swimbait design allows bait to slide up line after a hookset, eliminating fish from using weight of bait for leverage to throw hooks
  • Ultra-realistic mullet profile in highly detailed, hand-painted and photo-printed patterns
  • Rounded wedge-shaped tail empowers realistic swimming actions, slow-roll to burner-fast.
  • Composed of 10X Tough ElaZtech® superplastic to bounce back from repeated battles with violent saltwater gamefish
  • Custom, heavy-duty 3/0 (4.5”) and 5/0 (6”) sickle-shaped black nickel needlepoint hook for superior strength and penetration
  • Perfectly balanced with buoyant ElaZtech material to maintain continuous upright posture during retrieve, free-fall or at rest on bottom
  • Moderate sink rate (ROF 8); sinks 8 feet every 10 seconds
  • Internal rattle
  • Tail port hole accepts scent / attractants (we recommend Pro-Cure)
  • Available in six color patterns tuned for various water and light conditions

The Z-Man Mulletron LT comes in 4.5" and 6" sizes and six true-to-life color patterns.
