description

The 6-1/3 inch heavyweight 1oz jerkbait KANATA was designed to target fish that are keyed in on larger bait. Carefully tuned flat side body gives off monstrous flash whether burned over grass beds or worked like the Vision Oneten.

With a streamlined, slender body, KANATA keeps resistance to a minimum. This allows for a fast, action-packed retrieve that will not put undue stress on angler’s wrists and forearms, even with a Medium Heavy setup. Sharp rod work fuels energetic darting action, kicking out side-to-side with huge water displacement and appeal, and less forward travel than the Oneten. When paused, KANATA lifts its head before rising perfectly horizontally, adding a unique action to the mix. Straight retrieve shows off a high-pitch rolling action with flashing visual appeal.

Aerodynamic form and custom-fitted Megabass original Tungsten Triple Oscillating moving balancer system powers effortlessly long casts, allowing KANATA to target those clever monster fish from long range.

KANATA AYU brings a new size and sensation to the jerkbait game.

Fishing the Okashira Screwhead Hair Jig: Dialing in the Drop

Replacing Urgency with Confidence In highly pressured fisheries, fish have become conditioned to speed. Fast-falling jig heads, aggressive retrieves, and predictable flash have become the norm. Often, that speed results in more follows and fewer commitments. For Arkansas guide and fly tier Daniel Roberts, the answer isn’t adding more action. It is removing it. By […]

Out for a Stroll: Lessons from the Bank with the 5IN Sling Shad

Strolling Secrets: Origins and Essence Hailing from Japan’s ultra-pressured waters—including legendary Lake Biwa—strolling emerged as a technique to present minnow-style baits with understated subtlety. Rather than relying on the exaggerated, side-to-side thump of a paddle-tail swimbait, anglers turned to straight-tail plastics, gaining control over their bait’s every move. Utilizing the same jighead rigging as before, […]
