A downsized morsel of the GH50 in tough bite or small forage situations, the GH45 FLATSIDE minnow delivers a tight, ultra high-pitch action regardless of retrieve speed or current. The minnow profile’s flat sides give off outsized flash and displacement, drawing predatory feeders with aggression. Twitches of the rod generate a wide side-to-side darting action, emulating a natural, panicked reaction that activates neutral targets. Sculpted down to the smallest detail, each GH45 is hand finished in carefully selected Japanese stream and river patterns to induce compulsive reaction bites.
GH45 FLATSIDE hunts through rocks and current seams with a relentless, fast-paced action that triggers the natural predatory instincts of veteran trout. The floating variant can also draw unique strikes on a surface dead-drift or slow subsurface retrieve when forage rises in the water column. Proprietary barbless Buddha treble hooks keep fish pinned throughout the fight and allow for a quick release of treasured catches.
Led by Yuki Ito, Megabass’s next-generation rod development team—Project “Zero”—set out to redefine expectations. Their goal was deceptively simple: to make a foundational bass rod that could be the first—and final—choice of discerning anglers. Drawing from the technologies and functional concepts proven through years of tournament experience with the US-Spec OROCHI XX and DESTROYER series, […]
Where MAGDRAFT Excels The rigged MAGDRAFT is built around three features. The patented Mag-Hold system, category-defining action, a hookup percentage that held up across seasons, forage types, and bass species. It was built for shallow water, and inside that zone it has no equal. Bassmaster pro Kenta Kimura has fished the MAGDRAFT on two continents, […]
Outside the Conversation The world’s major design awards were built around architecture, mobility, consumer electronics, and medical equipment. Fishing tackle was never part of that conversation. Rods were judged by anglers, in the field, on terms the design world had no reason to examine. That changed in 2022, when the DESTROYER and COOKAI series became […]
