Megabass Haze-ST
Engineered to elevate strike responses from cruising, mid-column, and neutral fish, the Megabass Haze-ST is a highly realistic baitfish imitation that exhibits refined action across the spectrum of finesse tactics from drop shots, mid-strolling, and free rigs. Designed for tournament pressure zones where career-defining bites must be coaxed from pinpoint areas, the HAZE-ST empowers anglers with ultra-responsive behavior that enables instantaneous lifelike movement with minimal input. From a natural, near-motionless stick posture, the Haze-ST allows for delicate, high-precision techniques that erupt with vivid pulsing vibrations and subtle micro-waves to elicit strikes from the most discerning predators. Born from Japan’s long history of finesse outperformance, the Megabass Haze-ST enhances your arsenal by dramatically increasing bite chances from seasoned, pressure-weary lunkers that previously refused to react.
