Megabass X-70 SP

A Minnow with an Exceptional Flash

The Megabass X-70 SP is a compact, lightweight hard lure that fishes beautifully on light spinning rods. Even on a straight retrieve it produces a striking, high-frequency flash from its flat body profile, while twitching unlocks a darting action that sees the flanks catch the light in a way that few predators can ignore. Perch, chub, trout and largemouth bass are the primary targets with this small minnow, whether you're twitching or cranking it back.

A Weight Balancer System Built for Small Minnows

Megabass fitted the X-70 SP with the Type-T Mk-II Multiway Moving Balancer System - a system developed specifically for small minnows. A single ball bearing moves freely through the rear two-thirds of the lure, sliding all the way back during the cast to add momentum and deliver extra casting distance. The moment you work the rod - particularly when twitching - the ball shifts upward towards the centre of the body. This raises the lure's centre of gravity and causes it to break away with an unpredictable, erratic dart that triggers predators already keyed in on small fry. While pike, asp and zander are not the X-70 SP's classic targets, they will happily take it as an opportunistic snack, so the occasional heavyweight surprise is always on the cards.
