Description

If you have ever fished topwater baits, then you know that it is probably the most exciting way on the planet to catch fish. If you have ever thrown a topwater bait with the "walk the dog" action, then you know their effectiveness. The design of the Lucky Craft Sammy 85 Walking Bait makes "walking the dog" easy. The tapered body and weighted tail make the head of this bait sit high in water, putting it in a prone position which provides instantaneous turning and splashing with the slightest rod movement. The internal glass rattles call fish from great distances and depths. Professionals know that when it comes to drawing in fish on top, there is no better action than "walking the dog" and with the Lucky Craft Sammy 85 Walking Bait’s lifelike finishes and unsurpassed action, fish don't stand a chance. Available in limited edition colors with gold-foiled packaging, the exclusive color offering was produced in small quantities to help raise money for damage caused by the Wajima earthquakes that hit Japan in January of 2024.
