Description

Mimicking an injured baitfish struggling on the surface, the BassMooch Wake Z crankbait is perfect for targeting fish that are utilizing the top of the water column to feed. Built with a unique bill design, the Wake Z features two small holes in the bill , which allows it to always track true without rolling over and create a small bubble trail that entices fish to bite. The Wake Z also features a large rounded body shape that is extremely buoyant to keep it close to the surface at high retrieve speeds and allow it to deflect of cover with ease. Perfect for those situations when the fish are not willing to commit to a traditional topwater bait, the Wake Z Crankbait excels around any type of shallow water structure , including boat docks, laydown trees, and submerged grass. Finished with a set of razor-sharp treble hooks, the Wake Z is available in a selection of colors that will match the hatch on any body of water. Unique Two Hole Bill Design Large Round Body Shape Can Burn It or Slow Retrieve Creates Great Wake With Bubbles Floating 2.5 Inches 5/8 oz BassMooch acquired Profound Outdoors in 2025 and the Azuma Brand. We did not change the molds - everything is exactly the same!

Field Notes

Use in shallow water when fish are feeding near the surface but won’t commit to a traditional topwater. Burn it at high retrieve speeds for a buoyant wake and bubble trail, or slow-roll it around docks, laydowns, and submerged grass to trigger reaction bites.

Pros

  • Buoyant design stays near the surface even at fast retrieves
  • Two-hole bill helps it track true without rolling
  • Bubble/wake action can entice reluctant surface feeders
  • Good for shallow structure and cover deflection

Cons

  • Treble hooks can snag in heavy cover
  • Best results depend on shallow, surface-oriented feeding conditions
