The Megabass POPMAX M Threadfin Shad is a premium topwater popper designed by Yuki Ito to deliver unmatched surface disturbance and realism. Featuring an innovative gill system with six water intakes and an internal chamber, it channels water to create dynamic splashing, bubbling, and rolling action that mimics struggling baitfish. The system also stabilizes the lure during fast retrieves, allowing versatile presentations from chugging to walk-the-dog. Equipped with two razor-sharp #4 treble hooks, the POPMAX combines lifelike detail, sound, and precision for trophy-level topwater fishing.
