Often copied, but never rivaled, the Megabass Giant Dog-X has been a favorite of top water enthusiasts for over 10 years. The Giant Dog-X, with its realistic design and unique side-to-side roll-walking action, breathed new life into the walking-class of top water baits that have long been fished in the U.S.
The Giant Dog-X's incredible attention to detail and profile is coupled with a unique side-to-side, roll-walking action that will draw vicious surface strikes with only a slight twitching of the rod tip. This roll-walking action is what separates the Giant Dog-X from its competitors. This action, created by the Megabass balancer system, allows the walking motion to be complemented by a rolling action that allows for more of the realistic side-profile to be seen by the bass—unlike other lures in this class, which only allow the bottom of the bait to be seen by most fish.
This lure is most effective in water visibilities of 2 to 20ft., and excels when the water temps are between 55 and 85 degrees. Early mornings and cloudy, rainy days will produce the best results with the Giant Dog-X.
For best results, pair the Giant Dog-X with Megabass Dragon Call line in tests of 10 to 15lb., with the Megabass F4-66X4. This rod will allow for easy wrist movement, which is critical to properly working the Giant Dog-X.

Fish in Arkansas. Have a houseboat on a lake there. Mostly bank-pounding,
fishing shallow cover for bigger bass. But we also fish schooling stripers,
hybrids, whites and blacks in the morning and evening hours. Night fish with
black spinner baits, frogs and jitterbugs. Primarily pin-point casting to
structure, casting to breaks on the schoolers. Been fishing the Dog-X for
almost 15 years now. My go-to bait. Never leave home without it. Something
about it just works when nothing else does. And I have gotten pretty good at
making it dance. High-confidence bait I guess. I just know that I am going
to catch fish with it. If they want something smaller, I use a Cultiva
Zip-N-Ziggy in a similar color. Keep a lizard and a buzzbait ready ready for
misses. Do pretty good. Wife likes top-water action, so I keep her rigged up
with them as well. She will usually go small, I'll go big until we see what
seems to be working. Son caught his first 10-lb bass on a Dog, his second on
a Zip-N-Ziggy. And he is just 15. Hell, I just caught my second 10-lb bass a
couple of years ago. All good!
