Now you can troll fast and deep with the lightweight space-age alternatives from Nekton.

No more banging up your boat with heavy lead balls!
No more guesswork as to the depth that your baits are running.
You are in complete control of depth and the lateral location of your line.

The smooth hydrodynamic design puts you in complete control without having to adjust weights and cable. Downrigging has never been easier! You'll understand why the lead ball is a thing of the past as soon as you pick up a Z-Wing. Once in the water, the Z-Wings really perform, cutting silently through the depths. You'll see the results - catching the fish you are after!

The Science of sub-surface fishing moves closer to perfection
with the introduction of the patented Z-WING downrigger
system. Operating on the principle of hydrodynamic
depression rather than just weight, the Z-WING overcomes the
shortcomings of the conventional downrigger systems.

THE LIGHTWEIGHT ALTERNATIVE TO
LEAD BALL DOWNRIGGERS

Having the ability to troll lures and baits over a wide range of speeds
without complicated adjustments to the length of the tow cable has been the dream of downrigger anglers and captains for many years. Now the Z-WING downrigger system has made this dream come true.

The Z-WING is a lightweight, 13" x 7" piece of virtually indestructible polypropylene plastic. No more heavy lead balls rolling around the boat or swinging off the end of downrigger booms which can cause damage to both angler and boat alike.

The Z-WING has three positions
With the center hole being the most
efficient. Attaching the Z-WING 250
by the center hole will produce a
16 degree downward angle far
outperforming a 5 lb. lead ball.
The Z-WING will hold this angle
and lateral position at speeds
from under 1 knot to over 6 knots.

Z-WING 250 - Good for all speeds-3 3/4 pounds

Z-WING 500 - Lightweight, high speed-1 1/4 pounds
