Description

Fourth from the top. Muskies eat northern pike, plain and simple. If your lake has a multitude of runt size hammer handle pike, you can bet the big muskies in that system are eating them. Years ago, we offered a natural pike, and this year we’ve upped the game with a killer black pike pattern. We had clearwater and low light conditions in mind when we made these. Limited quantities this time.

Field Notes

This is a large topwater bait meant to imitate a small pike, making it a good choice when muskies are keying on baitfish or juvenile pike. The black pattern is especially useful in clear water and low-light conditions where a strong silhouette helps fish track the lure. Work it with steady retrieves, pauses, or walk-the-dog style movement depending on the bait's action.

Pros

  • Large profile that matches a juvenile pike forage base
  • High-contrast black pattern stands out in clear water and low light
  • Built for trophy pike and musky

Cons

  • Large topwater baits can be tiring to cast all day
  • May draw fewer bites in very pressured or ultra-finesse situations
