Overview
Built to deliver the ideal action, profile, and smell that drive fish wild, the Nikko Fishing Zaza Hellgrammite is world-famous for its ability to entice bites with an exquisite design that accurately mimics real hellgrammites. Poured with Nikko’s super-tough floating soft plastic material, the highly durable formula is made to last through multiple fish catches, with numerous appendages that flutter on the fall and entice finicky fish to bite.
Easy to fish, the Zaza Hellgrammite excels on a drop shot, Texas rig, or jig head, and you can even trim down the tail and pair it with a micro finesse jig for panfish, trout, crappie, and a variety of saltwater species. Scented with natural honey garlic oils to draw fish in from great distances, the Nikko Fishing Zaza Hellgrammite also has a hook slot along the back to provide completely weedless rigging and prevent snags around heavy cover.

Comments: This lure is hands down the best and most durable lure I've ever used. I went from buying my first pack to it being a confidence bait in a few days. Smallmouth just can't get enough of it. On my second day using it I caught a personal pb of 3lb in a small creek. The durability of these lures is unmatched. After catching 50+ smallmouth and rock bass I'm still on my first plastic, with the only battle scar being a single leg being half gone. Other than that it's as good as new. It fits perfectly on a jig head such as the keitech round head in a 1/0. Definitely worth the money.

Comments: Unbelievable drawing power for smallmouth. My brother uses them for tidal system largemouth with great success too. Ned rig it, drop shot it, texas rig it, whatever man. It catches fish. I am not sure if this is because there aren't a lot of baits imitating hellgrammites or just because the material and shape, but it is an awesome bait either way. These baits are made of a plastic that is even more durable than Z-Man ElaZtech, rigging on something like a jighead is a pain, but it is totally worth it because once it is on, it ain't coming off. The price may seem steep for four, but the only way you are going to lose these things is hanging them up. They hold onto scents well too, these pair awesome with pro-cure, I recommend any of the Smallmouth Crush scents. This bait is also incredibly buoyant. It fights and fights to stand straight up, even moreso than a TRD or most other "floating" presentations. All around awesome bait and I am so glad they are fina lly on Tackle Warehouse. 10/10 These baits do what they are meant to do. Excel in smallmouth rivers, and they are an absolute weapon to have in your arsenal. Maybe not the most applicable for the average bass boat angler, but for anyone in a kayak or wading they are an awesome tool to have.

Comments: One of the best baits for creeks and rivers. but don't sleep on it for lakes. Using this bait yesterday got me my biggest largemouth. It's made from a material that is very strong! Kind of like Elaztech, but different. I like to use the Flatlands Tackle Swinging Weedless Ned Heads with it. I highly recommend these!

Comments: If you want to catch big smallmouth and out fish all of your buddies then the Nikko Hellgrammite is for you. They are so realistic and durable. Excellent river and creek bait. Try them on a 1/16 or 1/8 zman bulletz head.

Comments: Amazing river and creek bait especially for smallmouth around rocks and current. Catches numbers and big ones. Extreme durability and elaztech style float make this a great ned bait. Ultra realistic option hoped or dragged on bottom. I like it best on the Zman Nedlockz EWG or the Finese Bulletz. A go to bait when the bite is tough. I've caught more river smallmouth on this bait than any other.
