This lure can be slow rolled in a constant retrieve but imparting action in the lure is much better. By slowly twitching the rod tip in a downward ‘dog-walking’ motion, the MX comes to life displaying erratic sideways actions. Combined with constant pauses allowing the MX to sit motionless, hovering in the face of its intended victim entices solid hookups on the wariest of fish.
The added advantage of having the lure suspend, allows the angler to drift the lure under pontoons or snags then continue the retrieve where normal floating lures cannot reach.
