Field Notes

Use when you want fast, choppy movement to trigger reaction bites. Cast and retrieve to keep the bait working aggressively; it’s especially effective when fish are keyed on speed and movement.

Pros

  • Compact 5.5" profile
  • Designed for aggressive, choppy, fast action
  • 1 oz slow-sink weight helps it get into the strike zone quickly

Cons

  • Best results rely on an active retrieve to maintain the choppy action
  • Not a true topwater option despite reaction-bite intent
