These are all floating stick baits, so they match a floating surface bait request well. The 40g Black Top, Reddish Purple Bottom Silver Wing Floating Stick Bait and 60g Blue, Black Tiger Stripe Silver Wing Floating Stick Bait are especially good when you want a baitfish profile in rough water with rise-on-pause action. The 80g Black Tip, White Floating Stick Bait and 80g Black Pearl Floating Stick Bait are stronger offshore choices for surface-feeding fish. The 60g Red Head, Yellow Tail Floating Stick Bait is a solid all-around surface option when predators are tracking bait near the top.
Work them with sweep-and-pause retrieves. On the pause, these baits rise and often trigger strikes from fish that are following. Use sharper sweeps for more commotion, or slower retrieves for a zig-zag or subtle wounded-baitfish look. These are casting lures, and several are listed for topwater use with surface action.
Switch to a different lure if fish are deep, inactive, or not responding to surface movement. If they want a more subtle subsurface presentation, use a lure that stays just under the surface on the retrieve. If you need more splash or a different profile, try a dedicated popper or a faster-sinking stickbait instead.
