Easiest To Use Walk The Dog Top Water Bait ? 2025
ChrisD46 reply :
Between a Spook , Vixen , Sammy , KVD Sexy Dawg , etc. - what do you believe are the easiest to use walk-the-dog top water baits ?
Matthew2000 reply :
Vixens, they are just so easy and smooth. But none are a challenge to walk maybe getting into the rhythm on the first few casts but it's quite a simple task.
A-Jay reply :
The Duo Realis Pencil - is the easiest walker I have and it's not even close.
A protruding sphere under the face of the Pencil 110 allows any angler, regardless of skill level to easily produce the classic "walk the dog" retrieve along the water's surface.
Comes in some real killer colors / patterns too.
Check it out.

You peaked my intrest and I just got a call from the bait money my appointment is tomorrow, he said bring a blank check. I'm a little scared about this one 14$ I might have to get more than 7 of them. Too bad I'm broke, for now.On 4/7/2015 at 8:58 AM, A-Jay said:The Duo Realis Pencil - is the easiest walker I have and it's not even close.

It just needs to be a bigger bait, and you need a rod and reel you're comfietable with.

x2 on rod and reel....you can walk any lure with the right set-up, just takes a little practice and a whole lotta patience!

primetime reply :
This one is easy, I fish all of them, but the easiest bait to walk, glide, walk it as fast as you can, sharp, cast a mile, is the Rebel T-10 Jumpin Minnow and the Larger T-20 size is easier, both cast further than a spook or Sammy, the T-10 is similar to the Ima Skimmer but the Skimmer takes a bit of time to learn how to get that tail to kick out water, the Rebel is the best to teach someone since you don't have to raise your rod tip on long casts, and it casts like a bullet, and it sits vertical in the water so the extra weight allows it to walk so easy. It also has smaller trebles and no feaher so less drag, but smaller lures like the Sebile Bongo minnow are tougher, the GYB Pencil Tate 76 is not that easy, and the KVD has a concave face so I find it is not the easiest to walk, but it is a good lure since it pushes more water than other's, the spook and Sammy are built to have one task and that is to walk....Walking a Gunfish is easy once you learn how to walk the Sammy but sometimes it works best when you just give it a few pops and a pause....I find the KVD to be good for creating a ruckus without much rhythym...
Throw a Rebel T10 and I promise you will be amazed how fast and sharp it turns and it responds to the slightest twitch...It also has a good hook up ratio since it sits completely vertical which is a nice feature if in open water.
The Spook is pretty easy once you adjust the line tie especially on the older ones, the Sammy is easy to control as well and I would never leave home without those 2, and the Chug Bug which walks surprisingly well and easy as well...heck, the rebel Pop'R walks easy especially with braid, but the Popn image is the easiest of all the short poppers in my experiences, I would say Zell Pop but they are the same lures, only the Zell pop is sanded down 1/10000 of an inch and costs 3x the amount...I still use my Zell Rowland Rebels...

This may sound counter-intuitive, but I don't want the bait that is easiest yo walk, I want the one that requires some skill & practice. If everyone & their brother can use a particular lure, I would expect the fish would see alot of them. I want to use the most effective bait that is the least popular.
J Francho reply :
Try walking a round bobber then, lol. That'll keep anyone busy for a while.
Personally, what is thrown rarely has anything to do with it. All the skill in the world can't catch a fish where there are none.

I wrote that I want to throw the most effective lure that is the least popular. I don't believe a bobber qualifies as an effective lure, at least for me. If it does for you, you missed your calling.
On a different thread, you belittled people who used Senko's in tournaments and insinuated that these anglers had few skills. It appeared you were saying they may not catch anything if it wasn't for that particularly effective & easy to use lure. Now you seemingly contradict yourself by saying what is thrown rarely has anything to do with it. That doesn't seem very consistent.
I would strongly disagree that what is thrown rarely has anything to do with it, as would anyone who has ever had a particular crankbait outproduce other models on the same group of fish.

You are barking up the Wrong Tree.

RSM789 reply :
In what way?
J Francho reply :
Wow. Disagreeing with someone on a forum is not belittling. Good natured ribbing about Senkos isn't either.
RSM789 reply :
Where did I ever write that disagreeing with someone equates to belittling?
One person's "good natured ribbing" may be another persons "belittling", especially when tone is difficult to discern. Face to face, such comments may include a big smile or pat on the back, but online, they just come across as words, intent dependent on the reader. I would think that also applies to ones attitude, which could easily be misconstrued by the reader due to normal biases or preconceived notions.
My mentioning of the other thread wasn't to call you out, it was just the recognition of an apparent inconsistency of your opinion as to how much importance lure selection has to do with fishing. My deepest apologies if you took it in a way that wasn't intended.
buzzed bait reply :
back to the point though, of all the baits listed i think the harder one for me to walk is the sammy.
one that is a great walker for me is the River2Sea Scott Martin Rover it's nearly effortless. of the ones listed though, the spook is hard to beat in terms of ease of use.

I need to learn how to walk the dog.
I have the baits but I just don't throw them.
fisherrw reply :
my friend has some vixens which are amazingly easy to walk i havent bought any though because of the price... i use spooks most which i can walk easy..
Bassguytom reply :
I'm a spook guy. All sizes for both largemouth and smallmouth. If it ain't broke don't fix it. I use The old florescent purple Stren mono for my spooks. Cast a mile easy to walk it floats and you can see it well.
Bluebasser86 reply :
It's almost hard not to walk a spook or super spook Jr if you try at all.
Crestliner2008 reply :
I've had a great deal of success with this little bad boy. VERY easy to walk the dog with it, as well as pop & spit. Great little lure:
