Megabass ONETEN MAX LBO FW Suspending Lure - 13.5 cm

Product highlights

Designed by Megabass, the ONETEN MAX LBO is a large jerk-minnow for predator fishing that stands out for its exceptional responsiveness and ease of use. Its highly refined hydrodynamic body slices through the water with minimal resistance while producing a lively, natural swim that triggers strikes from educated fish. This premium hardbait is aimed at demanding anglers who want a versatile minnow capable of covering large areas quickly while remaining precise in its trajectories.

Thanks to the combination of a refined profile and the LBOII mobile weight-balancing system, this model eliminates the sluggishness often found in large jerk-minnows. The internal weight transfer, with virtually no friction, optimizes each cast and immediately stabilizes the lure at the start of the retrieve. The result is a reliable, high-performing, and consistent tool whatever the wind conditions or fishing pressure.

Technical specifications

• Elongated jerk-minnow body, ideal for prospecting mid-water layers in freshwater.
• Patented LBOII mobile weight-balancing system with micro ball bearings arranged in an infinite loop to reduce internal friction.
• Weight held magnetically in the forward position during action, ensuring a stable, precise and highly responsive swim.
• Instant weight transfer to the rear during the cast for powerful propulsion and increased casting distances.
• Refined hydrodynamic design from ITO engineering, ensuring smooth water penetration and immediate response to rod input.
• Nervous action that responds perfectly to jerking, twitching or controlled straight retrieve animations.
• Suitable for modern predator fishing in many cover configurations: shorelines, open water, submerged structures.
• Part of the prestigious ONETEN Megabass series, known for its finish and consistent swimming action.

Advantages and key strengths

One of the major strengths of the Megabass ONETEN MAX LBO lies in its ability to combine volume with lively swimming action. Where many large minnows become sluggish or difficult to handle, this model remains precise, incisive and perfectly controllable. Each pull creates a sharp lateral displacement followed by a quick return to the axis, perfectly imitating a panicked baitfish. This highly reactive action is especially effective on wary or pressured fish.

Usage tips

The ONETEN MAX LBO performs best with a progressive spinning or casting rod, paired with a line suited to hardbait fishing. Use its mass-transfer system to reach distant zones: make a strong cast, let the lure stabilize on impact, then begin your retrieve as soon as contact with the water is established. Alternate sharp jerks, pauses of varying length and continuous retrieves to find the cadence that triggers strikes on the day. In windy conditions, the LBOII system helps maintain excellent casting accuracy, allowing you to stay discreet and keep control of the trajectory.

• Favor long casts to quickly cover shorelines, drop-offs and shallow flats.
• Vary the intensity and frequency of jerks to match predator activity.
• Use regular pauses to give the lure time to provoke reflex strikes.

FAQ

Question 1: What type of fishing is this lure intended for?

Answer: This model is designed for freshwater predator fishing, when you need a reactive jerk-minnow capable of withstanding pronounced animations while remaining stable and attractive.

Question 2: What does the LBOII system actually provide compared to a standard jerk-minnow?

Answer: The LBOII system greatly reduces internal friction thanks to its micro ball bearings and infinite-loop guidance. The weight moves freely to the rear during the cast, generating powerful, consistent propulsion, then returns instantly to the head position during the retrieve to deliver a precise, balanced and immediately effective swim.
