Super User Gundog Posted February 24, 2018 Super User Posted February 24, 2018 Oddly enough, its a 6 inch worm. I've probably caught more bass on a worm run over shallow grass and pads than any other bait. Its the best lure on hot summer mornings. Only problem is the pickerel like it too. 1 Quote
Kyhokie Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Whopper. Plopper. Close second would be spro frog. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted February 24, 2018 Super User Posted February 24, 2018 Top topwater lures of all time: 1. Excalibur Zell Rowland Pop-R 2. Storm Chug bug 3. Excalibur super spook 4. Spro Frog 5. Whopper Plopper 110 - Quickly shooting up the list. Quote
Riazuli Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 I grew up on the jitterbug, so that would have to be my all-time favorite. After that is booyah poppin pad crasher and lunkhunt popping frogs, which were my biggest producers this last summer. I'm also a big fan of spooks, and just started using whopper ploppers...I'd have to say the whopper plopper is my favorite now in terms of action/versatility. Quote

RPreeb Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 As usual I don't have a lot to bring to the table on this since I only started trying a little bass fishing last year after a 55 year hiatus, but the topwater that I've caught the most on would have been the Hula Popper back in the early 60's. My best recent success for topwater is a BPS brand which doesn't seem to be available any more, with the slit just back of the lip for water to squirt out of. (I bought these about 6 years ago for fishing salt water tide channels for mutton snapper in the Bahamas, and glad I got 6 of each) I caught my first bass in more than 50 years on the one in the top right of this photo at a little lake lake outside of Eldora, IA called Pine Lake, and I caught several more from a couple of small ponds here near my house. 1 Quote

Oklahoma Mike Posted February 25, 2018 Posted February 25, 2018 For many, many years it was a Cavitron buzzbait. But the Jackall Pompadour has moved into my number one spot. Honorable mention to the Sammy and the Pop-Max. Quote

WI_Angler1989 Posted February 25, 2018 Posted February 25, 2018 1) Heddon Super Spook Jr (saltwater version) in Red Head 2) 3/8 black Cavitron Buzzbait 3) Rebel Pop-R (Honorable mention) Whopper Plopper. I had success with mine last year, but didn't fish it a ton. So it's hard to be a favorite. Although it was a lot of fun. Quote
