Field Notes

This is a surface bait designed to crawl and jitter across the top, making it a good choice when fish are feeding shallow. Work it slowly with pauses to let the natural swimming action draw strikes, especially around calm water or low-light periods.

Pros

  • Unique jitterbug-style topwater presentation
  • Large profile can call fish up from a distance
  • Natural swimming action

Cons

  • Large size may be too much for pressured fish
  • Best suited to surface-feeding situations
