Description

The original Live-X which was introduced many years ago is no longer available, but the basic concept lives on within every member of the Live-X series - with the most complex Multi-Way Moving Balancer System, the Live-X series created a new bait category: the diving jerk-minnow. The Smolt is the most compact expression of that philosophy - a 48mm body determined from the profile and size of Japanese fingering baits, engineered to suspend and flutter at 1.2 metres with an action that defies its size. A vertical centre of gravity shift mechanism raises the centre of gravity with the impact of a twitch or slight pump, allowing anyone to easily create a fluttering action - and the lure boasts an excellent stable action from ultra slow to fast speed, regardless of whether it is used in lakes or mountain streams. 

The GG Deadly Black Shad colourway - Respect Colour #10 - applies the Guanium Ghost holographic finish to a black-backed shad pattern: a deep, near-opaque black dorsal colouration rolling into silver-grey flanks with the GG's fine etched scale detailing catching light from below in a way a flat black finish never could, producing maximum silhouette contrast in the conditions where every other colour loses its presence - pre-dawn, overcast, post-frontal grey skies, and stained water. The "Deadly" prefix in Megabass colour nomenclature signals an intensified, high-contrast variant of the base pattern, making GG Deadly Black Shad the most aggressive dark-water expression in the GG shad series.
