The original Kubomi lip design is a fundamentally different piece of engineering from the refined geometry of subsequent Deep-X 100 iterations and the LBO variants that followed more than a decade later, making this not merely an older version of a current lure but a genuine first-generation prototype-adjacent piece from Megabass's most formative crankbait development period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen this bait traces the bottom its action is like rubbing its belly against it, and thanks to the balancer it can be twitched unlike other crankbaits, a compact body that Megabass proved could catch trophy bass more consistently than the larger, shapeless deep crankbaits that dominated the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Chart Back colourway presents a high-visibility chartreuse dorsal with a contrasting natural belly, a reaction trigger finish from an era when Megabass was applying the same colour philosophy to its crankbait range that tournament professionals were demanding for pressured, deep-water bass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Megabass","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46839956897929,"sku":"WG-MEGA-DEEP-054","price":89.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/1038\/4009\/files\/Gem-123.jpg?v=1780562420","url":"https:\/\/wildersfishing.com.au\/products\/megabass-deep-x-100-1996-chart-back-gem-54","provider":"Wilder's Fishing \u0026 Supply Co.
