Megabass IXI Shad Type-3 Crankbaits use the latest developments in hardbait technology to provide unrivaled performance that cranking enthusiasts nationwide will be able to appreciate. Featuring Megabass’ Linear Bearing Oscillator system (LBO), the IXI Shad is capable of extra-long casts and dives to its maximum depth faster than any crankbait before. The LBO system gives the lure a perfectly balanced action that ensures immediate start up on every cast and will run true regardless of retrieval speed. These crankbaits are perfect for use around submerged structure like docks and stumps as they are designed for making hard deflections and immediately reengage their swimming action after contact with structure. The LBO system gives the bait a weight forward retrieve that tends to angle the bait downwards, making it perfect for “dancing” the bait lip first along hard bottoms without getting snagged. Like all other Megabass lures, the IXI shad features stunning cosmetics and lifelike detailing including 3D eyes, realistic scale patters, and is available in a wide array of fish catching colors.
