Description

Introducing the Zoo Wake™, the revolutionary wake-style hollow-body topwater bait with a unique body style and swimming action. The Zoo Wake brings together the best features between a frog and a swimbait, giving the fish something they haven't seen before. Whether you're winding it super slow to create a subtle wake bait action or cranking it faster to swim just below the surface, the Zoo Wake™ excels in both. Its unique design causes the tail to swing erratically on the surface or kick seductively like a fleeing baitfish or frog, displacing water and giving it truly lifelike appeal. Perfect for frogging across mats, pads, or navigating open water tracts in weed mats, the finesse-style hollow body is irresistible to bass, provoking explosive strikes. The Zoo Wake™ remains weedless, allowing you to run it over mats from one hole to the next, even when weeds are in an emergent stage. Equipped with a premium 4/0 double hook, this bait ensures solid hookups every time. Key Features: Versatile action: floats when fished slow, swims when cranked fast Kickin' paddle tail for natural, enticing movement Perfect for open water and weed mats Premium 4/0 double hook Weight: 1/2 oz; Length: 4-1/4 inches Experience the unique, multifaceted action of the Zoo Wake™ and elevate your topwater fishing game.

Field Notes

Use it on topwater when bass are feeding near the surface, especially around weed mats and pads. For a subtle wake, wind super slow; for a more active swim, crank faster to get it to run just below the surface. Its weedless design lets you work it across emergent weeds without snagging.

Pros

  • Wake-style hollow-body action that works slow or fast
  • Weedless for running over mats/pads
  • Premium 4/0 double hook for solid hookups
  • Effective in both open water and heavy weed cover

Cons

  • Topwater-style lure requires surface activity to be most effective
  • Double-hook setup may snag if weeds are extremely dense
