  • The Megabass MagDraft swimbait is a hot, hush hush, secret bait in many areas. Well, it is time to get the authority and tell everyone how to fish it! Chris Zaldain is one of the hottest professional bass anglers on the planet and has caught more fish on the Megabass MagDraft that anyone I know. He walks everyone through his set ups, the baits, and how to fish them. We break it down and tell you the goods!

    I was a marshal at Kentucky Lake 2 years ago and I saw first hand how good this swimbait is. Chris caught 24 lbs that day and was fishing behind other anglers. The Megabass MagDraft is the real deal for BIG bass. John thanks for the video's. Keep them coming.

    Hey John,sub here & wanted to thank you for having Zaldain on.He put me on to the Okashira screw lock and the 3 inch Spark Shad;which got me thru a tough winter bite here in west by God Virgina.Caught a few "Micropterus Salmoides" over 3lbs on the Spark Shad over the last few months.Got a nice spot a few hours ago on one,actually.Love the swimbaits,&have really stepped up my finesse swimbait game.

    This is by far my favorite swim bait. Rolled in behind guys on KY lake fishing a tournament all in $100k ranger boats. And slayed them and laughed when they ask what I caught them on. Especially I took off out of Paris landing where they was and got looked down on cause I have an aluminum bass boat.

    Awesome interview John! I begin using the white back 6 inch version in early spring, and it has been a great locator even if they don’t hook up. And I will say the speed of Retrieve is crucial. If you real these too fast they will turn on their side so you have to learn to slow and steady. God bless!

    Good video guys , I wanted to add two other mods that I do to both the 6 and the 8in,, you can remove the belly hook with the swivel ad rig it on top to the eyelit this way you can slow roll it over cover easier and reel it on the bottom without getting hung up , also with the 8in you can cut out the magnetic harness with a razor blade and maker you cut a little deeper and then with a. 10/0 or 12/0 weighted beast hook you can make it weedless like the freestyle, the hook up tackle just did a recent video about this but I have been doing it for years

    If you don’t already know, there is another way of rigging the Magdraft where it is weedless. Here is a video from Bigbassdreams showing how to convert these lures to become weedless. After I lost a few of my first Magdrafts on deep snags, I converted every Magdraft I had after that to be weedless. Haven’t looked back. Makes this lure able to be fished anywhere and perfects the lure in my opinion. Megabass found out about guys like Oliver Ngy who were having great success doing this and then released the Magdraft “freestyle” as an encore so anglers would have a Magdraft ready to rig weedless right out of the box. ua-cam.com/video/ST10ew0aPKM/v-deo.html
