Employ a slow, steady retrieve to keep the lure on the surface, generating a wide rolling action and a pronounced triangular wake. Increase the retrieval speed to make the lure dive and swim with a tight rolling motion 4 to 8 inches below the surface. Use sharp rod jerks to create surface splashes and bubbles, or a stop-and-go retrieve to trigger strikes with an erratic, panicked action.

What action does the Megabass Anthrax 100 produce?

The Anthrax 100 is a multi-action wakebait. A slow retrieve creates a super rolling surface action with a triangular wake. Increasing speed makes it swim 4 to 8 inches below the surface as a subsurface shad. Jerking produces splashing and bubbling, while stop-and-go retrieves mimic a panicked baitfish with fluttering and rising actions.

How does the Roller Gyro-Balancer System work?

The patented system uses a ball weight that shifts laterally along a shaft balancer on the lure's roll axis. This movement increases the inertia of the rolling action for powerful water displacement and causes the weight to strike the inner body wall, producing a rhythmic, high-pitched clicking sound.

What is the purpose of the Anthrax 100's dorsal-facing design?

The lure is designed to present its dark back to predators swimming below, mimicking a vulnerable baitfish. This keeps the white belly, which can act as camouflage against the surface, hidden from view, making the lure a clearer and more attractive target.

What are the physical specifications of the Anthrax 100?

The lure measures 4.1 inches (105 mm) in length and weighs 1/2 oz. It is a floating model designed to run at depths from the surface down to approximately 8 inches (0.2 m).
