Tips for using Topwater Lures:
- Pay attention to the weather conditions - low light conditions, overcast skies, or a light chop on the water can all make fish more willing to strike a topwater lure.
- Use the right gear - make sure you have a rod with a sensitive tip and a fast action that allows you to make precise casts and work the lure properly.
- Experiment with different retrieves - vary the speed and cadence of your retrieve to find out what the fish are responding to.
- Be patient - topwater strikes can be explosive, but they can also be subtle. Give the fish time to fully take the lure before setting the hook.
