Description

Rover 98 – 30 Yoda color Rover is the new generation of walking bait. Rover’s action turns the leisurely weekend dog walk into a sprint through the park. Instead of the gliding action anglers are accustomed to, Rover’s choppy, side–to–side slashing will draw vicious strikes like a pit bull attacking its prey. Rover’s face features an exaggerated cupping that spits more aggressively than other baits of this genre. it’s cupped mouth and geometry also create one of the most unique actions ever experienced in a lure of this type.

Field Notes

Use this walking bait over shallow cover, open pockets, and calm water when bass are feeding near the surface. Work it with a steady walk-the-dog retrieve and occasional pauses to trigger reaction strikes. The choppy side-to-side action and spitting face make it a strong choice in low-light periods or around active fish.

Pros

  • Strong side-to-side walking action
  • Cupped face spits water aggressively
  • Good for reaction strikes

Cons

  • Best suited to surface-feeding fish
  • Can be harder to work in heavy wind or rough water
