Overview
Built for topwater presentations, this frog-style lure is intended for anglers working grass, lily pads, and other heavy surface cover where a floating bait can draw reaction strikes. Its cupped face creates a pronounced pop and splash with each twitch, while the narrow profile also supports a walking retrieve in open water. A soft, collapsible body and Mustad AlphaPoint double hook are included in the design, and the lifelike detailing with painted eyes adds a realistic finish. It is a specialized option for targeting bass around cover, with a presentation focused on surface disturbance rather than subtle action.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- The popping action and loud splash are built for topwater presentations, so it is a specialized lure rather than an all-around option.
- Its streamlined, narrow profile is designed to walk the dog and work open water, which may be less versatile in tighter or more varied retrieve styles.
- The soft, collapsible body supports hookup performance, but soft-body lures can require more care than rigid baits when stored or fished around heavy cover.
- It is intended to float and fish around grass, lily pads, and heavy surface cover, so results will depend on matching the lure to those conditions.
