Zappu – Blading Pile Driver

The Zappu Blading Pile Driver is a weighted EWG-style swimbait hook that combines the weedless performance of Zappus Pile Driver system with the added attraction of a flashing willow blade. Zappu designed it by adding a blade to its weighted Pile Driver Counter, creating extra flash and vibration during both the retrieve and the fall. The blade is connected with a quality swivel that allows it to rotate freely, while its slightly bent profile produces a wide flutter. This makes the Blading Pile Driver an excellent match for paddle-tail swimbaits, shad-tail worms, and pintail plastics, especially when bass need additional flash or vibration to trigger a strike. A screw-lock bait keeper at the hook eye securely holds your soft plastic in place, while the EWG-style hook allows the bait to be Texas-rigged for a relatively weedless presentation. Its a strong choice for swimming soft plastics through grass, vegetation, shallow cover, and stained or muddy water.
