Where the original Scream-X delivered wide action variation and the Scream-X Jr. offered technical maneuverability, the Orca introduces something different: a calculated prop form body - a fusion form of propeller geometry - that naturally generates unintended transformation actions by accurately intertwining water flow, causing it to engulf and peel away as appropriate to the angler's rod work. Megabass describes it as a lure with \"a special magical power that will captivate the top water plugger, which you will be addicted to as you use it.\" Its defining feature is the metal flap tail - linked to the dog walk left and right by rod action, it kicks and slaps the water surface, producing an irregular flashing and distinctive slapping sound that transforms the Orca's surface presence into something that, in Megabass's own words, moves \"as if Orca himself has a will.\" The high buoyancy of the balsa body enables head banking, quick table turns, dives, and slides impossible with conventional full-size pencils - all produced through simple rod work with line slugs that any angler can execute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDated 2005 on the belly alongside Yuki Ito's own designation, this example sits in the founding production year of the Scream-X Orca. The Mat Tiger colourway applies Megabass's matte tiger stripe finish — one of the brand's most enduring and widely applied reaction colours - to the handmade balsa prop form body in a deep black dorsal fading into vivid teal-green with bright chartreuse-yellow belly, a high-visibility reaction presentation that generates strikes from fish that have already seen and dismissed every natural baitfish presentation at the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Megabass","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48348650242185,"sku":"WG-MEGA-ORCA-156","price":139.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/1038\/4009\/files\/Gem-811.jpg?v=1789506152","url":"https:\/\/wildersfishing.com.au\/products\/megabass-scream-x-orca-2005-mat-tiger-gem-156","provider":"Wilder's Fishing \u0026 Supply Co.
