Lunker Addict Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Just bought a Megabass Pop Max and I love the action. Problem is that I have only fished it twice and the paint is already chipping off in quite a few areas. Has anybody else had this problem? For the price I wouldn't think that this would happen. Quote
Super User deaknh03 Posted June 5, 2015 Super User Posted June 5, 2015 It does eventuslly chip off in places..I guess the pace of wear would be dictated by how many fish you've caught and what kinds. I have some stripped of all paint. They still work great. Quote
Super User Master Bait'r Posted June 5, 2015 Super User Posted June 5, 2015 Different paints wear differently and MB is no exception. Not to worry though, it's the action that catches he fish Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted June 5, 2015 Global Moderator Posted June 5, 2015 You might check out the River2Sea Bubble Walker. Very similar body style and action but half the price and the paint is more durable. Quote
Logan S Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Just keep fishing it, you won't mind what it looks like when it keeps catching fish . My best 110's are ones that I call 'broken in'... Some chipped paint, tooth scratches, and a little hook rash but they catch fish like crazy. On a topwater it probably doesn't really matter anyway, most of the time the silhouette and action are more important than the paint job IMO. Baitfish are never as perfect-looking as lure paint jobs, so I never really worry about scratches or chipping. Quote
Super User Raul Posted June 5, 2015 Super User Posted June 5, 2015 In some brands like Megabass and Lucky Craft the clear coat is very thin and it chips away easily. Quote
Lunker Addict Posted June 5, 2015 Author Posted June 5, 2015 Thanks for the replies. I guess it doesn't matter because the fish can't seem to keep it out of their mouths. Quote
