Description

Storm Chug Bugs have been a favorite for many topwater fishermen for years and no wonder, with their proven fish-catching ability and versatility. These big popper baits can be twitched and splashed like any other popper. With a faster retrieve, they will walk-the-dog and spit and pop, making bass pay attention even from deep water or thick cover. They cast easily, even with baitcasting gear, because of the weighted tail section that also gives them their unique action. Great paint jobs, deep finishes, and pearl Mylar fire tails round out the package for a real fish-catching topwater bait that won't just sit in the box.
