SENKOSAM Posted April 10, 2013 Posted April 10, 2013 A previous post brought up mostly hard lure for topwater fishing - Spook, popper, buzz baits. What wasn't mentioned were the large number of soft plastic designs that are sometimes more effective than any hard bait. A few I use are: Mighty Bug by YUM T-rigged and used as a buzzbait or twitch lure Largest size Beaver or Ugly Otter (YUM) Taper tailed sticks used as walking jerkbaits Flukes and other nose-hooked twitch baits frogs with super leg action Floating worms The list goes on and on but on any given day most will get wacked!

BuckMaxx Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 Some (almost 30 now EEK!) years ago... we used to use weightless ribbon tail or culprit gator tail worms in the back of coves. They would KILL it! it is still one of my favorite summertime pond tactics. Quote
Jay Ell Gee Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 True floating worms are amazing topwaters in the creeks around my house. Those mean little spotted bass just LOVE them. I have been known to buzz an UV speed craw across the surface before as well. Quote
