Description

Built to tempt big bites and cut through the small ones, the McArthy Baits Magnum Gambit takes the proven profile of the original 6” bait and upsizes it for heavyweight applications. The long, narrow body and subtle curly tail deliver the same natural swimming action, but with a larger presence that shines on magnum shaky heads, Carolina rigs, and pitching setups at big bass fisheries across the country. Rig it on a 5/0 to 6/0 EWG hook and show them something worth eating.
