Why did Megabait change the LA Slider?
Why did Megabait change the LA Slider?
What happened to the LA Slider? Why did Megabait drop it and start making the Bass Grande? Does anyone know where you can still get the Megabait 7.5 inch trout patterned sliders? The new Bass Grande's are nowhere near the same.
Re: Why did Megabait change the LA Slider?
From what I understand, the inventor of the LA Slider revoked the license for Megabait to manufacture the baits.
They made their own under the Little Anthony name. Out customers preferred the manufacturing quality of the Megabaits over the Little Anthony's.
I'm not sure if the Little Anthony's are being made any more as some colors never came back in stock from my supplier.
There were a lot of Megabait LA Sliders that were auctioned off when Megabait went under so I see them pop up on ebay once in a while.
I've gotten a few offers to buy some in bulk, but it's been tough to find the inserts...
The quality of the Bass Grande is the same as the Megabait sliders. The tail action is the same. They just couldn't copy the patented slide out weight.
Even the Bass Grande is now out of production and we're starting to run out of colors.
