I told Linus to get them on the shelfs as soon as you send them. Good product right there, and Fun-n-Sun is glad to be a Megabass dealer. Thanks Mark!

I would get with one of our local dealers and preorder. They are in the system and will ship when Classic is over but the initial supply will go fast.

If anyone is going to be at the Classic next week you can buy them there. I would say shipments will be the next week. A buddy of mine is going to have a booth there. He said he will have 5 boxes of each color. One box of the Sexy French Pearl is going home to my son in TN. Guys you need to check out the Spiggen too. Doyle has sold out twice of the craw colors twice already in two weeks. Some fish catching machines.

The new 1.2 sized S Crank is being released a bit earlier now as well. Same bait and weight just a smaller profile.

Mark, can you explain differences with the Knuckle? Thanks.

The S Crank 1.5 will have a different profile and different look all in all. It has the built in S action but will maintain a true track if that makes sense. Basically during the retrieve it will slide out wide and "hunt" so to speak. It will generate strikes through that built in action.

The Knuckle and Knuckle Jr are built as adjustable squarebills. By that I mean the lip has a 2 position feature where you can either run it at 1' or at 5' depending on which setting you choose. The lip is extremely durable and to date I have not broken any. The main differences between the full size Knuckle and the Jr are in length. The Knuckle is 2 3/9" while the Jr is 2 1/4". Both are 3/8oz in weight. The Jr is the same weight to better allow castability etc.

I own only 2 Megabass products and am sold on their quality. A bit steep on price though... That video just made me pre order a couple. Looks like an updated version of a Rebel Wee-R that hunts...

Been throwing the MB S Crank in the 1.5 and 1.2 size for a couple of weeks. This bait is the real deal. So many things you can do with it action wise beyond conventional squarebills. Incredible castability and the built in S action is a sight to see. They run true and are built very well. The initial offerings all went so fast but as of today Oak Ridge Marina at Fork has a few left in stock. We are at the time of year that squarebills can really produce so I urge you to give Barry a call and grab the last few as we will not see any until late April more than likely.

I'm a little ticked I haven't got mine from TW yet. Should arrive today or tomorrow. I ordered the day they put on website, but guess they had a few VIP's to hook up first.

Re: New S-Crank squarebill from Megabass - 03/17/15 12:17 AM

got them in just now! they look so solid. I got both sizes. think I will still use the knuckles as a smaller more finesse setup. these will be the meat shallow cranks though.

Re: New S-Crank squarebill from Megabass - 03/17/15 01:59 AM

The bouyancy of these baits are reminiscent of the old school balsa baits. Love the hard wobble on them too. You guys will like them.

I guess finding a couple red ones would be just about impossible at this point?

Fire Craw or the E2 Craw? The 1.2 or the 1.5?......Barry can special order it or I can try and see if there are any in the system right now.

TW is showing March 23rd for 1.2 and May for 1.5. I also know APT was going to get some. Not sure who else or when Barry will be restocked.

Wow! $400 worth of crankbaits right there!

Just got word that the patent will be arriving shortly on this bait. Its been a huge success and to head off any knockoffs this particular model will be given a patent.

In addition I continue to be impressed by the buoyancy and the fact that most fish I catch are choking it. Almost every bite has been inside the mouth on it. Since water is warming up now is the time to add a split ring to it for a tad more action. Cooler water it might be best to tie direct.

Got a big shipment of them in today in both sizes, the 1.2 and 1.5! Come check them out
