ChrisAW Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 One of the guys I work with told me he wanted to sell off a bunch topwater baits that he'd never even thrown before, so I took a look at them and found a few that I did like. I ended up buying three different colors of one kind, not really knowing what they were, but that I liked how they looked. I just finally took a minute to look them up, and I guess I got a pretty good deal! I bought three of these Chug Minnow 35's for $5, still in new shape. From what I read, these were $10 a piece off the shelf. I haven't had a chance to fish these yet myself either, so I'm curious what their action is like and how to work them? Are they more of a popper or walk-the-dog style bait? Quote
Bass_Fanatic Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 I have never fished those before but from the looks of them, they look like a walk-the-dog type of bait. Quote
ChrisAW Posted May 13, 2011 Author Posted May 13, 2011 I thought so as well but then there is this on the underside of the nose, sort of "popper" indent. Quote
CFFF 1.5 Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 If you don't want them I will buy all 3 from you for double the price plus shipping. Quote
Bass_Fanatic Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 I would still think its a walking bait. It is probably something like a chug bug that can pop or walk, but most of the time I have better luck walking chug bugs so I would imagine this one would be the same way. Quote
CFFF 1.5 Posted May 14, 2011 Posted May 14, 2011 I have found the best way to use this bait is to use it as a walking bait. The difference between this and other walking or popper baits is that this bait will walk like a walking bait but while walking it will spit some water like a popper. These are killer baits and I can't fathom why Spro stopped making them. I currently only have one left and need to find some on ebay I can buy. Quote

I do plan on keeping and fishing these ones, but I'll talk to the guy I bought them from and see if he still has the ones I didn't buy. I think there was about 4 left or so. Quote
Avalonjohn44 Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 There are a few on Ebay, some for less than $10 incl shipping... Quote
