Best Topwater Lure 2025


fishing user avatarJman59wl3 reply : 

Hey everybody, I'm fishin' for largemouth bass in some Florida ponds, what do you guys recommend for topwater lures, I found a "popper" lure and it seems to be working well, what else do you guys recommend (brands,colors,etc) THanks guys


fishing user avatarMCS reply : 

Other than the popper in blk/chrome, blue/silver or tenn. shad, zoom toads in blk/yllw swirl, or buzz baits in white or green/chart work for me. You will find lots like the zooms, they are a fav of a few around here. Lol


fishing user avatarLgMouthGambler reply : 

Zara Spook, Chug Bug, Frogs-hollow and plastic.


fishing user avatarJake P reply : 

Rage tail toad and the Cavitron buzzbait are my 2 favorite. The Cavitron is outstanding. If you haven't tried one I would HIGHLY recommend doing so. I haven't bought any other buzzbait in 4 years.

A spook, Spro popping frog 75, devils horse, plastic "buzzin" toad (horny toad/JDs/rage, etc), and a pop-R will cover most the bases for you down here.

fishing user avatarBluebasser86 reply : 

I'm a big fan of the cavitron also. The Zell pop is my favorite popper by a long shot. I'm starting to like the Spro popping frog more and more too. I doubt you'll find the Cavitron at Bass Pro, we have 2 close by and neither one has ever carried them.

That takes some guts to admit on a public forum. Lol


fishing user avatarJake P reply : 

I don't think bps has Cavitron. I have only found them at dicks sporting goods or online.


fishing user avatarMichael DiNardo reply : 

Hey, what's wrong with a big, black Jitterbug??? It's my favorite too!

What's the deal with these Cavitrons, why are they everyone's favorite?

Mike


fishing user avatariceintheveins reply : 

Cavitrons are the slowest retrieving single blade buzzbait out there and make a wonderful squeaking noise right out of the box.

fishing user avatarNot_Here reply :

Look at that fat basstid-- I wasnt talking about the fish--LOL

There are many ways to catch bass at night. Big worms -Jigs- spinnerbaits with colorodo blades for more vibration. I try to stay away from trebble (trouble) hooks at night. One wrong move landing it and its a trip to the ER.. Go try different baits to become a more well rounded angler -No pun intended -

Experiment and let the fish tell you how they want the baits presented. Sometimes I cant buy a bite on a top water biut throw a worm and ya clean up.


fishing user avatarout_doors_guy reply : 

I would have to say for me, in no particular order; Rebel pop-R, Smithwick Devils Horse, Zara Spook, Floating Rapala or Bagleys Bang-o-Lure and over grass or moss a Snagproof frog.


fishing user avatarSherlock 60 reply : 

Spro Bronze Eye Frog is my current favorite.

I know several ponds near that are extremely thick in veg, I will have to give this a try. thanks.


fishing user avatarGangley reply : 

Buzzbaits, poppers, and frogs.

My favorite is a black buzzbait at night and a popper in the morning and evening.

For a popper, I prefer the Yellow Magic or the Zel-pop. Both are outstanding.


fishing user avatarJman59wl3 reply : 

i guess ill go to bass pro and look at the cavitrons and zara spook and the zell pop and any idea how much the cavitrons are at dicks?

ya its from a lake here i was on but thats relatively minor compared, pads are easy street to fish. what we do have big time is underwater forests of emergent veg that mats the top of the water covering huge areas, like coon tail and milfoil etc...where you need a push pole to go over it, its super dense and thick...you have to frog it or punch it pretty much...not to mention filamentous algae on everything and on top of the water...its sloposaurus land kinda stuff lol


fishing user avatarA-Rob reply : 

buzzfrog

hollowbelly frog


fishing user avatarMark J reply : 

Heddon Torpedo, Rico, and LC T-Splash have produced a lot for me in Florida ponds in addition to the baits mentioned above...


fishing user avatarMark J reply : 

Forgot the trick worm and kuttail worm worked on the surface.
