Freshwater Fishing Tackle – Rods, Reels & Gear

The Megabass Shading-X R 62 is fueled by a patented balancer system that enables dizzyingly high-pitch action and improved cast performance, elevating the finesse shad to exquisite new heights. Reengineered to perform in Japan’s toughest conditions, the Shading-X R 62 series is built to deliver bites when bass are keyed on precise, high-pitch action. The main spherical weight of the Triangle Counter Balancing System. operates as a traditional moving balancer, increasing cast distance on bait finesse and spinning setups alike.

The upper balancer truly comes alive when twitches cause it to shift along its lateral axis, adding unpredictable dynamism to the Shading-X R’s action. With one fixed weight and two moving balancers, the lure’s center of gravity is dynamically triangulated in every configuration from cast to retrieve, powering the Shading-X’s compelling performance. The thin, tapered body generates a high-pitched vibration that practically bursts at the seams, supercharging the kind of tight action that is often required in finesse situations.

Upon retrieve, the balancers roll into the forward position for an optimal head-down posture, enabling a hair-trigger responsiveness that will even bring the Shading-X R to life with ultra-slow pulls or extra-sensitive angler input. With a fast retrieve, the high-pitch vibration compels targets into decisive reaction bites. The engineering of the Shading-X R 62 series brings disparate parts together in perfect harmony, leveraging dynamic weight triangulation to deliver a new high-pitch predator for the toughest angling conditions.

The Baitsanity Antidote TUG Glide Bait features Baitsanity’s premier Glide-Leap system that relies on a sliding weight to allow the bait to leap to the surface on an aggressive twitch and swim underwater on a steady retrieve. This system gives anglers the ability to target fish with explosive topwater action, or transition to a more traditional subsurface gliding motion which puts uniquely comprehensive control in the angler’s hands.

The Baitsanity Antidote TUG Glide Bait also comes outfitted with ground-breaking auxiliary features that take it to a whole new level. Just over the premium front treble hook anglers will find a set of carbon fiber fins. Situated near the rear hook are Baitsanity’s new removable, custom Fish Knits fins that are perfect for absorbing scent and creating micro bubbles on the retrieve. The tail of the TUG is buoyant and houses a layer of carbon fiber that is carefully crafted to help the glider maintain perfect balance and slowly float toward the surface. 

• Glide-Leap System for versatile topwater and subsurface action
  
• Fish Knits fins hold scent and can be removed for washing or replacement
  
• Carbon fiber pectoral fins guard against hook rash

Forged from over 30 years of Curado performance and durability, this Shimano Curado 200 M Casting Reels inherits the latest Shimano reel technologies to provide enhanced castability with heavier lines and lures in any power fishing situation. Expanding on Curado's reputation as a do-everything reel, Shimano redesigned and refined the Curado 200 to provide ultimate castability with heavier lines and lures in any power fishing situation. 

Expanded line capacity comes without compromise as the Curado 200 M now leverages Shimano's MagnumLite (MGL) Spool III to reduce start-up inertia for unparalleled casting performance, especially when targeting trophies with large paddle-tail swimbaits, big jigs, deep-diving cranks, oversized frogs, Carolina rigs or umbrella rigs. The addition of SilentTune technology improves spool quietness during casts.

SVS Infinity technology provides precision casting performance with easy-to-manage and consistent spool control and brake force adjustments when faced with demanding conditions or switching between baits. The aluminum HAGANE Body provides added rigidity to increase cranking power and overall reeling efficiency, while MicroModule Gear, Cross Carbon Drag and X-Ship deliver the tournament-tested smoothness, durability, and versatility for which the Curado family is known.

Our specialty is life-like fully functional swimbait fishing lures that are hand made of the highest quality materials and components; such as the Huddleston Deluxe Bluegill Top Hook Swimbaits. We are a small fish lure manufacturer located in Las Vegas Nevada USA.

Over the years we have developed many unique proprietary-manufacturing techniques, therefore we do not allow touring of our facility. Our customer base consists of tournament and serious trophy fisherman. We believe well made life-like fishing lures greatly increase your odds in your pursuit of trophy fish.

The Huddleston Deluxe Bluegill Top Hook features the same proven tail shape as its baitfish.

Once bass strike, the body folds, exposing the hook and delivering a rock-solid hook set.

Hot on the heels of one of the most popular baits of 2023 comes the all-new Yamamoto 2.5" Yamatanuki. Much like its 3.5” big brother, the 2.5” Yamatanuki is a power-finesse offering that fish can’t resist. It weighs ¼ oz alone, is available in 8 colors, falls with the same tantalizing sway and shimmy, and allows for countless rigging opportunities to fit most any scenario. This new size of the Yamatanuki was repeatedly requested by our pros and consumers who wanted a smaller, more compact version of their new favorite soft plastic.

The smaller size allows for greater application in clear water, smallmouth, spotted bass, and other finesse scenarios. The 2.5” perfectly fits the bill as it can be fished on light line, rigged weightless, or on most any style of jig head. It can be cast, pitched, skipped, dropped, or presented however the situation calls for. As usual, you can expect consistent and top-quality products from a bait company that’s proudly made in the USA.

The 2.5” Yamatanuki will take your finesse fishing game to a whole new level! Count Per Bag: 10

The slow sink version of Shimano Armajoint 190 Slow Sink Swimbait solves the challenges of casting a big jointed swimbait in search of trophy fish. Lure engineers leverage Shimano's proprietary Arma-Boost technology to significantly increase casting distance and accuracy by reducing unnecessary air resistance and the chances of the lure spinning during flight. As the angler casts the lure, Arma Boost technology facilitates the lure to disconnect from an internal magnet and forces the body to fold into its compact shape. 

The Shimano Armajoint 190SS is a versatile lure that can be retrieved fast or slow, enabling anglers to vary their retrieve depending on the situation. Available in the this slow sink version, it will give you the availability to fish deeper or faster since the bait is less likely to rise on a faster retrieve. 

The bait will normally swim in an S-pattern, but the bait will not flare out when stopped due to the fold in its body. Anglers can slow down the receive and pause the to capitalize on the lure's natural slow-rising action. ARMAJOINT also features Shimano's proprietary FLASH BOOST technology that constantly emits a fish-attracting flash during the retrieve — even on the pause — by suspending reflective foil on micro springs to mimic the flashing behavior of an injured baitfish.

Designed with purpose by leveraging innovation and technology and improving angler performance while drawing strikes from tournament-winning bass.

ROF: Slow Sink

Length: 190mm (7.48in.)

Weight: 56g (2oz)

Features: 

• Arma Boost to increase a lure's casting distance by folding a jointed lure into a compact shape, reducing air resistance and minimizing the chances of the lure spinning during flight.

• Scale Boost capitalizes on composite-pitch holograms to increase the amount and complexity of light reflected through the water.

Justin Lucas Pro Tip 90: Cast and retrieve around all types of shallow cover. Best suited for calmer conditions.

Introducing Phenix's Classic BFS Casting Rods, the perfect option for angling in heavily pressured fisheries. Their light line and lure capabilities make for precision casting and accuracy. Expertly crafted by Japan's number one ultra-light rod manufacturer. The Classic BFS is built on a proprietary 36T Toray Carbon Fiber blank with a solid Carbon Tip section. This, combined with the Extra Fast action, leads to the most sensitive BFS rods on the market.

Utilizing Fuji Micro Guides with Alconite inserts, a proprietary complete contact reel seat on the casting versions, and a Fuji VSS reel seat on the spinning versions, with quality Portuguese Cork grips, lends to a very JDM look and feel. Casting light lures from 3/32-1/4oz, or .88-7.39 grams on a 4-10lb line, has never been easier with the backbone to pull in larger-sized fish. Whether it’s trophy bass or trout, in heavily pressured waters where light line and small lures are necessary for success, go armed for battle with a Classic BFS rod. 

The Deps Frilled Shad 4.7 Inches are a realistic reproduction of streamlined baitfish with enhanced real action that trembles and rolls, such as a smelt that live in many waters. The bait has a quivering action and unique twisting swimming action. In addition, a rolling action with a shaking from side to side is created during the retrieve. Just swim it back and the bait will do the rest. FRILLED SHAD is 4.7 inches and comes five per pack.

The mold of the bait creates an ultra-realistic body and it includes lifelike eyes. The combination makes it look just like a baitfish and will get more bites in tough situations. 

There are two versions, one with a 0% salt content and one with 10%.

Key parts that are the key to action:

The fan-shaped lip that spreads over the head passes the water stream around the bait and also creates a rolling action with unique trembling action. The bait looks just like a baitfish and the soft body makes it lifelike and appeals to wary bass.

The lip acts as a brake to reduce the movement more slowly, and it is possible to effectively work rocks and sticks where bass live.

Also, since the hook is hidden, it acts like a weedguard.

JACKALL designed the Jackall B-Crawl Swimmer Jig as a swim jig to fish near brush piles and shallow cover — a method called "Bush Crawl." By adjusting the ratio of tungsten in the jig head, Jackall engineers were able to enhance the jig's weight while keeping the size of the jig head the same to provide consistent lure action.

The flat-sided head shape emphasizes a rolling action while also making the B-CRAWL easier to skip. Both the v-shaped wire guard and placement of the line tie enable anglers to fish effectively through cover while still providing anglers with increased hookup ratios. The B-CRAWL Swimmer is the perfect swim jig to catch trophy bass in or around cover.
