Description

The Skitter Shad is simply the best top-water on the market. It is a breeze to walk, and the loud rattle calls big bass from long distances. The bait sits low in the water thus moving a huge amount of water, and the colors are simply stellar. Big Bass will absolutely want to kill this bait when it passes over their head.

Field Notes

This is a topwater walking bait designed to be worked across the surface with a side-to-side cadence. The loud rattle and low-riding profile help it call bass from a distance, especially when fish are feeding near the top. It is a good choice over open water, around bait activity, or when you want an aggressive reaction strike.

Pros

  • Easy walking action
  • Loud rattle for long-distance attraction
  • Low-riding profile moves a lot of water

Cons

  • Best only when bass are willing to strike on top
  • Can be less effective in heavy wind or thick cover
