Soft Lure ZMAN Micro TRD 1.75" - 4.5 cm

The ZMAN Micro TRD is a 1.75" (≈ 4.5 cm) finesse soft lure designed to target perch, trout, and other small predatory fish. Its compact size and stickbait TRD profile make it ideal for micro-finesse fishing, with an action based on a discreet presentation and staying in the strike zone.

ElaZtech 10x Tough material: flexibility, buoyancy, and durability

The Micro TRD is made from ZMAN’s exclusive ElaZtech® 10× Tough material. It combines pronounced flexibility with natural buoyancy, while offering strong resistance to repeated bites to extend the lure’s lifespan.

Buoyancy: a presentation that works even at rest

Thanks to its buoyancy, the lure tends to slowly rise off the bottom when at rest. This gradual lift keeps the lure alive even without constant movement, helping trigger strikes when fish are wary.

Recommended rigs and uses

This compact format is suited to micro-finesse fishing and the Ned rig setup. For this type of approach, it is recommended to pair it with fine jig heads such as Micro Finesse ShroomZ®.
