Description

Green Pumpkin Wakebait - The key to good wake bait fishing is simply making long casts, focusing on keeping a steady V cutting across the surface and casting to likely targets or where you’ve seen fish come up and kill on baitfish. The biggest key can be just to throw it where the fish quit striking your other topwaters and showing them something different. The round-bodied baits can give you a bit smaller profile, can be worked a little faster and often can be more precise casting for working the wake approach around shallow cover like laydowns, grass and more.

Field Notes

Make long casts and keep a steady V-cut across the surface. Cast to likely targets or where fish have been coming up, especially when other topwaters stop getting strikes. Work it around shallow cover like laydowns and grass, using a slightly faster retrieve if needed.

Pros

  • Creates a steady V wake across the surface
  • Good for long-cast wakebait fishing
  • Works around shallow cover and laydowns/grass

Cons

  • Best results depend on maintaining a steady wake approach
  • Wakebait action can be less effective if fish aren’t actively relating to the surface
