Field Notes

This is a wake bait designed to be fished slowly on the surface or just under it. Keep the rod tip high and reel slowly to create a wake, or speed up with the rod tip down to make it dive a bit. It’s suited to low-light periods and calm-to-slightly rippled water when bass are tracking a larger baitfish profile.

Pros

  • Floats and can be waked or made to dive with retrieve speed
  • Large 7-inch profile for bigger bass
  • Hooks included

Cons

  • Requires a heavier rod and stronger line than typical topwater baits
  • Price is high compared with standard hard baits
