Megabass Great Hunting 51 Humpback FS (51mm/5.1g)

The GREAT HUNTING HUMPBACK from Megabass is based on the proportions of the previous small minnows in the Great Hunting range (classic and flat side). However, the GREAT HUNTING HUMPBACK series has a significantly thinner body than conventional small minnows. This maximizes the visual effect of flashing and shape change through high-speed rolling action on retrieves and flat strikes on twitches.

The high-density body and balanced rear center of gravity provide excellent castability, allowing the lure to reach the target area instantly without being swept away by the current. Even in heavy and complicated currents, the lure can be made to act as the angler intends and attract the big trout.

The Megabass GH51 Humpback represents the most versatile size within the Great Hunting Humpback series. Designed to explore new streams where trout of all sizes roam, it combines fast-sinking performance, tail-weighted balance and precise depth control for demanding mountain rivers.

Tall body profile – amplified flash at any retrieve speed

Despite its compact 51mm length, the GH51 features a taller-than-average body with aggressively flattened sides. On a steady retrieve it produces a high-speed rolling action that emits strong flash. When twitched or jerked, it creates sharp lateral strikes and visual flicker that trigger reaction bites from pressured trout.

Fast sinking & tail-weighted – superior range control

The high-density construction and rear-weighted balance deliver smooth casting performance and quick depth access. After splashdown, the lure sinks rapidly into the strike zone and tracks true both with and against current. In fast streams and deeper pools, the GH51 excels by offering a high degree of range control and maintaining stability in complex flows.

Built for technical water

• Mountain streams and small to mid-size rivers
• Fast current and structured runs
• Deep pools requiring quick depth penetration

Tactical adjustment within the series

If trout follow but refuse to strike, consider downsizing to the smaller GH46 model or increasing retrieve speed and twitch intensity. The GH51 sits at the centre of the range, offering a balance between subtle presentation and increased visual presence.

Technical specifications

• Length: 51 mm
