Description

Delivering topwater action like no other, the Pops’ Pencil Topwater lets any angler master the classic “walk the dog” retrieve. A subtle sphere under the face helps the lure glide across the water’s surface, while a sharp twitch at the peak produces splashes and a short dive for more advanced action. An internal moving weight system creates a seductive knocking sound during the retrieve and enhances long, precise casts. Hand-painted in a variety of proven, bass‑attracting colors, this lure is a lethal choice for bass that few can resist.

Field Notes

Use on calm to moderately windy days when bass are willing to chase at the surface. Work it with a “walk the dog” cadence—short rod-tip twitches with pauses—to make it glide, splash, and occasionally dive. Best around low light and early/late day when surface activity is highest.

Pros

  • Designed specifically for a walk-the-dog topwater retrieve
  • Internal moving weight system adds knocking sound and helps long, precise casts
  • Hand-painted in bass-attracting colors

Cons

  • Requires correct twitch/pause cadence to perform at its best
  • More effective when bass are actively feeding near the surface
