Field Notes

This is a topwater prop-style bait designed to be worked on the surface. Cast it near cover or over open water and retrieve with pauses or short twitches to make the tail and front hardware call fish up. The feathered rear treble adds extra movement and can help trigger strikes in low-light conditions.

Pros

  • Surface commotion can draw reaction strikes
  • Feathered rear treble adds lifelike movement
  • Compact 2 7/8-inch profile

Cons

  • Topwater effectiveness drops in rough water
  • Treble hooks can be snag-prone around heavy cover
