The Megabass X-80SW transforms the classic X-80 minnow into a specialized saltwater tool for stripers and pelagic gamefish. Through strategic weight redistribution, Megabass engineered a unique wide-rolling action that thrives in tidal currents while maintaining incredible castability.
Key features
- Low CG with fixed front weight and tungsten composite twin balancers for stable swimming in rough water.
- Slow-sinking rate keeps the lure in the strike zone during long traces without excessive diving.
- Compact 80.5mm humpback body generates a pronounced rolling wobble and ample flash.
- Capable of super long-distance casts despite its slim profile—punches through headwinds.
- Outfitted with dual #6 treble hooks for reliable hooksets.
Best for
- Shore fishing for striped bass and bluefish around bays and estuaries.
- Windy days when maximum casting distance is critical.
- Working shallow flats and current seams with a slow, rolling retrieve.
