Just like the original DOG-X and DOG-X Jr., GIANT DOG-X is built to roll-walk. Roll-walking does two things. It pushes (displaces) more water and exposes the sides of the bait to the fish underneath. If bait simply skates left and right, it pushes the least amount of water and only its belly is visible to the fish below. That is why roll-walking is critical. At the same time with the high buoyancy and rather tall body design, GIANT DOG-X effectively eliminated the slow movement, the inherent problem with the larger baits. GIANT DOG-X‘s action is now controlled by a tungsten balancer.
