Megatail Rattlesnake
Massive Profile. Maximum Thump.
The GrandeBass 8" MEGAtail Rattlesnake combines the signature deep-ringed Rattlesnake body with a massive oversized ribbon tail. Designed for maximum water displacement, it creates a bold underwater presence that stands out on deep ledges, offshore humps, and heavy structure.
Produced and designed in the USA, this injection-molded soft plastic is infused with Xtreme Scent and salt. The deep rings trap air and increase scent release, while the reinforced tail connection helps prevent short strikes from smaller fish.
