Field Notes

Best used as a surface presentation around calm to lightly rippled water when gar are feeding near the top. Cast it and work it steadily or with short pauses to imitate a small baitfish or gar profile. It also has collector appeal, so it can be fished or displayed.

Pros

  • Handmade, collectible custom lure
  • Realistic gar profile and hand-painted finish
  • Compact 4.5-inch body is easy to cast

Cons

  • Premium price for a niche bait
  • Limited availability
  • Likely best in specific topwater situations
