About us

The Zoom Bait Company is a true American success story, rising from one man’s vision and elbow grease to become the worldwide leader in soft plastic lures. Ed Chambers proved that necessity truly is the mother of invention in the fishing industry – when he couldn’t find the worm styles that he needed, the Georgia gaming machine salesman used a trolling motor in a 55 gallon drum to mix up the plastic to mold lures that would do a better job.

Zoom’s attention to detail and innovative nature has allowed the company to grow.

That was 1977. In the nearly four decades since that relatively inauspicious beginning, Zoom’s attention to detail and innovative nature has allowed the company to grow. Now, instead of a 55 gallon drum, there’s a 40,000 square foot facility with state of the art equipment manned by over 100 full-time employees, producing countless styles of lures in over 400 distinct color patterns in the distinctive red packaging.

That growth has been fueled by a commitment to quality and listening to what anglers want. In some cases, that has meant taking an existing concept and making it better. For example, the Zoom Lizard had become the standard-bearer for the industry, the best of its kind and used anywhere that bass swim. On the other extreme, Zoom has worked to develop new shapes and techniques, such as the Super Fluke and Brush Hog, category-defining styles that are often imitated but never replaced. Zoom has been one of the leaders in developing new colors, too, with now-standards like Pumpkin coming from the fertile mind of Ed Chambers, who truly “thinks like a fish.”

Super fluke 10pk Mardi Gras; the super fluke is a truly amazing bait. One would really have to fish with this 5 1/4" Wonder to understand. Texas rig it without a weight, and twitch or "soft Jerk" on the surface, then let it slowly fall to a few feet deep, and repeat. Bass just "react" when they see this bait in action. They just can't stand it. This bait is very effective when fished in weed pockets also. Packed 10 per bag.; soft plastics ; zoom; soft Jerk Baits are known fish catchers and the salty super fluke from Zoom Baits is one of the premier Baits on the market today. The natural fish shape is attractive to all kinds of fish in both fresh and salt water but big bass really like them. Because of their streamlined shape they glide and swoop through the water easily with the slightest twitch of the rod tip. Use them weightless and they hit the surface like a fleeing baitfish. Use our lunker City insert weights to get the super fluke down around fish-holding structure or deep into brush. Mardi Gras.
