The Megabass Dark Sleeper is a deep running soft body swimbait. Designed to target fish that hold tight to the bottom, it features a fin entirely covering the top hook, allowing the bait to navigate through gnarly cover and avoid possible snags. Its low center of gravity weight ensures a stealthy, life-like representation. Extremely durable due to a tough yet soft material, the bait also boasts a supple paddle tail for a natural kicking action.
Overall, this is a great winter/cold water swimbait that can get down to lethargic bass holding deep and offer up a big tasty snack they find worthy of expending a little energy on. Be sure to try it as a bed fishing bait during the spawn too.

I have most sizes in this bait. Didn’t have the smallest. I ordered two and they are small!! You are better off using a Ned rig than this bait for $5.99. I know the size was listed but I thought it would have had a bigger profile. Never would hav3 bought this if I was able to see one before hand. Just giving a heads up. Very happy with the bigger sizes.

Amazing swim bait
I purchased an assortment of deep sleeper bottom swim baits and found the 1/4 oz dark shad to be the bomb👊 I caught two nice smallmouth bass 👍 these mega bass dark sleepers are the real deal😃

Best all around bait!
The dark sleeper is the perfect bait for smallmouth fishing! You can drag it like a tube, pop it off the bottom or swim it like any other swimbait. Some of the biggest smallies I’ve ever caught have been on the dark sleeper. If I could only use one bait for the rest of my life this would be it!

Great Bait for Great Lakes
Solid bait for clearer water. Good action on sandy bottoms. Let it sink, hesitate then twitch and slow reel in cooler water.
This chatter bait is a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. The blade starts quick. I use a mooch minnow for a trailer. It presents a nice compact profile that can be thrown with a bait caster.
These worms are an excellent finesse choice. Rainbow Trout love 'em so far. Discount Tackle ships them quickly and they arrive well packaged, damage free and on time!!!
ive only used my deep-x once, but it doesnt seem to get to the stated depth on a cast. ill be using it on another lake, to cast and troll. i do look forward to that, as this other lake is the reason i purchased the deep-x, mainly to troll with. i think they will work great on the troll!!
If you are having trouble reaching that 8-foot depth, we highly recommend using a lighter # test fluorocarbon. Feel free to contact us if you have any other questions or concerns!
