Topwater fishing is definitely not your normal bass fishing with rubber worms. A lot of it does vary on location. For instance in PA i do extremely well on poppers and walking baits especially at dawn or dusk, but working these lures down weedlines has produced fish for me at all times of day. I've never really got a response on the hollow bodied lures up here though. I mean, I catch fish on them, but normally if I'm gonna fish topwater I'm throwing a Heddon One Knocker Spook, an X-Rap Popper, or a Jitterbug. Try different cadences for the lures as well you'd be surprised how a slightly different action on a topwater could change your entire day of fishing. Hope this helps!
