Megabass Respect 27
The Megabass SG Kasumi Reaction is a legendary Respect Series color that occupies a unique space between high-visibility attractants and subtle ghost patterns. Originally developed around the year 2000 for the challenging, muddy waters of Lake Kasumigaura, the “SG” (Super Ghost) designation indicates its primary aesthetic appeal: a pale, pearlescent ghost body that offers high translucency while maintaining a soft, glowing presence. This is overlaid with a classic green tiger-stripe pattern, creating a best-of-both-worlds look. Collectors especially hunt for the original SG versions from the early Live-X Revenge runs, as later iterations shifted to a more opaque “PM” (Pearl Mica) finish, losing that signature ethereal transparency that defines the Kasumi series.
In terms of application, this color is a specialized “shocker” for early spring or heavily pressured community holes where fish have become weary of standard neon chartreuse or solid metallic baits. Because it blends a natural ghost base with an aggressive tiger-stripe contrast, it is exceptionally effective in stained or milky water conditions where you want to trigger a reaction strike without spooking the fish with too much flash. Anglers typically deploy the SG Kasumi Reaction when the water is slightly off-color but the sun is bright; the ghost body allows the lure to disappear during the pause, while the green tiger bars provide a sudden, sharp visual pop during the jerk, mimicking a panicked prey item emerging from the murk.

Hi Clark. To the best of my knowledge, the only model listed there that is available in Kasumi Reaction is the standard 110. It was last available in 2021 which means, today your best bet to find one is probably the reseller market. Somewhere like the “Megabass buy, sell, trade and collect” group on Facebook is a good place to reach out. However! I recently spotted that SG Kasumi Reaction has appeared in the 2024 European catalogue for the first time, as a core color. If you want to pay retail – albeit European retail, which is expensive – you might do well to wait a bit and buy one from a European retailer. All the best. Adam

Hi Stanley. It’s getting harder to find but I did see some SG Kasumi Reaction still for sale at retail in Europe. Currently in stock at hook-up.eu, which ships worldwide. Other than that, you could try putting up a post on the Facebook group called ‘Megabass buy, sell, trade and collect’. Hope you find some.
