Description

The key to good wake bait fishing is simply making long casts, focusing on keeping a steady V cutting across the surface and casting to likely targets or where you’ve seen fish come up and kill on baitfish. The biggest key can be just to throw it where the fish quit striking your other topwaters and showing them something different. The round-bodied baits can give you a bit smaller profile, can be worked a little faster and often can be more precise casting for working the wake approach around shallow cover like laydowns, grass and more.Color Green Dots

Field Notes

Make long casts and keep a steady V-shaped wake across the surface. Target areas where fish are coming up or where they stop striking other topwaters, then work the wake bait around shallow cover like laydowns and grass.

Pros

  • Round-bodied profile helps with precision casting
  • Effective as a change-up when other topwaters fail

Cons

  • Best results require surface activity and accurate casting
