What happened to ISlide after Shark Tank?.Launch the Megabass I-Slide 185 Swimbait into the morning mist, and this next-generation “S-Motion” big-bait will deliver the key advancements to land that sought-after monster. Holding the hooks in place also streamlines I-SLIDE’s motion, allowing for smooth, consistent “S” swimming action during steady retrieve, and reduces slack-line tangles when executing sharp turns and 360-degree action. The Megabass I-Slide 185 Swimbait is designed to perform a perfect “360 turn” with a twitch of the rod to trigger bites from curious followers. This not only eliminates the unnatural profile of dangling hooks for an especially deadly clear-water presentation, but aligns the hook-points for an ideal hookset. The built-in MAGHOLD System (PAT.P) generates a magnetic field behind each hook hangar, cradling the needle-sharp treble hooks alongside the Megabass I-Slide 185 Swimbait’s body. I-SLIDE brings all-new features to the “S-Motion” bigbait category. This allows users to target visible structure incredibly tightly. MAGHOLD also eliminates line tangle when performing 360-degree turns.īy simply changing retrieve speed, Megabass I-Slide 185 Swimbait’s S-Motion can be tuned for wide or tight action. The built-in magnets hold hooks in place, minimizing hook presence to streamline action, and trick those wise fish that rely on visual instincts. Positive feel of the lure’s motion becomes a clear advantage in strong currents and stained water. Megabass I-Slide 185 Swimbait performs smooth “S” swimming motion under steady retrieve, and communicates lure action feedback to angler at all times. Particularly effective in water temperatures under 60F. During the maneuver, the lure momentarily escapes from the predator’s eyesight then quickly appears right back in front of the fish’s mouth, triggering a reaction bite from followers. 360° turns with a simple twitch of the rod.
