Field Notes

Use this floating surface lure to create a wake and draw strikes from fish feeding near the top. It is best worked steadily or with short pauses over shallow water, especially when fish are willing to rise for a bait that stays low in the film.

Pros

  • Floating design keeps it in the strike zone near the surface
  • Wake-style presentation can trigger aggressive topwater bites
  • Large profile is easy for fish to track

Cons

  • Topwater presentation is less effective in heavy wind or rough water
  • May miss fish that want a deeper presentation
