Description

Unmatched in attraction and originality, the Shadow Pomper provides a one-of-a-kind topwater presentation that fish won't be ready for. This gorgesous bait mimics small amphibians, birds and large bugs as they crawl along the surface. Tackle enthusiasts may be familiar with this type of lure, many Japanese companies have released similar "crawling" topwater baits in the past most often to mimic the Cicada's which are a very popular food source for bass around the world. Designed to tempt bass at the surface, the Shadow Pomper is fitted with metal wings that collapse on the cast and then flare out once they hit the water. Made to move tons of water, the flapping metal wings create a noticeable splash and a unique sound that complements the dual rattle chambers. The Shadow Pomper creates a noticeable wake along the surface and it's rattle chambers inside are just another added bonus that creates an extra level of attraction.At the rear, the Shadow Pomper features a free-swinging hook holder and a prop blade that generate a heavy gurgling attraction. This forward-thinking design not only creates additional disturbance, but it also eliminates the possibility of a bass using the lure as leverage to spit the hook. Offered in two exclusive original custom color ways (more to come soon!), the Shadow Pomper has a big presence that will draws even bigger bites. Length Weight Class Shadow Pomper 3" 3/4oz Topwater

Field Notes

Use this as a surface bait for bass when fish are feeding on top or keying on insects, frogs, or small surface prey. The wings, wake, and prop blade make it a good choice for calm to lightly rippled water where fish can track the disturbance. Work it steadily or with short pauses to keep it crawling and gurgling on the surface.

Pros

  • Unique crawling topwater presentation
  • Creates splash, wake, and gurgling sound
  • Dual rattle chambers add extra attraction

Cons

  • May be less effective in heavy wind or rough water
  • Specialized presentation can be technique-sensitive
