Description

The Viper is a walk the dog top water bait that really draws the attention of predator fish. Its side to side action makes a commotion on the surface. The live action tail adds just that little something extra. It is best to use a solid wire leader on this walk the dog bait. The Phantom Lures Viper is 8" long (11" w/tail) and weighs 5.5 oz

Field Notes

Use this walk-the-dog topwater bait on predator fish when you want a surface commotion. Cast to likely ambush areas and work it with a steady retrieve and rod-tip twitches to create side-to-side action; a solid wire leader is recommended.

  • Live-action tail adds extra movement
  • Large size (8") helps draw in predator fish

Cons

  • Requires a solid wire leader for best results
  • Best results depend on correct twitch/walk-the-dog cadence
