Field Notes

This is a high-riding foam topwater fly for warmwater situations. Fish it around calm edges, shallow cover, and surface-feeding fish where a visible floating bug can draw strikes. It is especially suited to panfish and largemouth bass when fish are looking up.

Pros

  • Floats high on the surface
  • Good visibility and easy to track
  • Works well for panfish and largemouth bass

Cons

  • Best only when fish are willing to eat on top
  • Foam bugs can be less subtle in clear, pressured water
