Super User A-Jay Posted December 8, 2020 Super User Posted December 8, 2020 The Legend is now Bite-sized ! LENGTH 3-7/8in WEIGHT 3/8oz DEPTH 7ft TYPE Suspend HOOKS #8 https://megabassusa.com/product/vision-oneten-1-jr/# Pretty excited about this one. As my jerk bait arsenal recently experienced a bit of a down sizing, there's a little room in the Pro-V Bass for a few of the right replacements. This might be it. Accordingly a modest 'sampler' selection is headed my way. btw - Rather than the Katsuage out-barb treble hook, seems Megabass went in another direction. Interesting. A-Jay 5 2 Quote

Revival Posted December 9, 2020 Posted December 9, 2020 Im excited about this one. I’m surprised it took them this long to come out with the Jr +1. 1 Quote

Super User gim Posted December 9, 2020 Super User Posted December 9, 2020 Do you think its heavy enough to cast on a BC? Some smaller-sized jerk baits are tough. I know I could use a spinning setup but I prefer to use a BC if I'm able to. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted December 9, 2020 Super User Posted December 9, 2020 Well, I'm sure most guys fish the full size 110 on baitcasting gear, but it is actually intended to be fished on light line and spinning gear. I will be fishing the Jr. on #6 and spinning tackle. 3 Quote

I know I could use a spinning setup but I prefer to use a BC if I'm able to. I will use what works best. Best for me means a long accurate cast, often straight into a stiff breeze, able to fish the bait effectively for long periods of time, get bites, set the hooks, and finally play & land some fatties. That said, I expect to throw this on medium spinning gear with a light braid mainline; probably an 8 lb mono or FC leader, as the mood strikes me. A-Jay Quote
Big Rick Posted December 9, 2020 Posted December 9, 2020 It's a 3/8 oz bait with the famous weight-transfer system. I'm confident that one will be able to cast it on bait casting equipment set up for 3/8 oz baits. Lighter line and softer tips will be a plus. 1 Quote

Super User MIbassyaker Posted December 10, 2020 Super User Posted December 10, 2020 Yeah, nice! Goes right to the top of my Try-in-2021 list. My main jerkbait/topwater BC rod can easily cast a 3/8oz popper, so I can't imagine it would have a problem with this. 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted December 11, 2020 Author Super User Posted December 11, 2020 Jr's are in the house. Looking good. Pic shows standard 110, 110 +1 and 110 +2 for size comparision. Just enough IMO. A-Jay 3 Quote

And now I’ve got Mr. Jones saying “buy some” lol... Guilty These Jr's seem like sweet baits - For brown bass, I am excited about the new size option. After having them in hand, expect to have no problem attaining the casting distance I need as these are slim & dense; should be good. And I'll keep shouting this into the wind until it's heard . . . We need a SILENT One Ten +1 that will still cast. Just use the same tungsten weight transfer system, but with rubber coated weights. May get some vibration out of them but No loud rattle. (pretty sure 6th Sense has been doing this for a while in several crankbaits) Someone call Megabass right away ! A-Jay 1 Quote
Frezzy Posted December 12, 2020 Posted December 12, 2020 I fished the regular Jr. size a bunch this year and don't care for it. Seems like it attracted a lot more small fish than the regular size 110. Think I will be passing on the Jr. +1 for 2021. If you haven't tried the new Max LBO 110 yet I strongly suggest you do. I put a beating on big smallies with that bait this fall. They absolutely hammer it and it casts a mile. GG Pro Perch is my go to color. 1 Quote

Super User Columbia Craw Posted January 2, 2021 Super User Posted January 2, 2021 It would seem there are enough anglers interested in this bait to see them sold out at most on line stores. I’m happy I ordered three while they were available.? 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted April 14, 2021 Author Super User Posted April 14, 2021 Circling back on this one ~ I've been fishing these 110 +1 Jr's hard since open water a couple of weeks ago. Love the action. I was also very glad to see that they cast great and when using 8lb braid and an 8 lb FC leader, they do run at the advertised depth of 7 ft. I did change out the stock #8 trebles with #6's, so my baits 'run' a little deeper; I like that. Been using a St Croix Avid X ML spinning rod to deliver them and at 3/8 oz, that was no problem. #launchcity So while the perch pattern was where I'd expected my initial success to come from, it was actually the Clown, that tricked this 5.80 lb beauty of a brown bass yesterday. It was a great 'fight' and I can't help but expect more of the same in the immediate future, if not sooner. Fish Hard A-Jay 6 Quote
