Howdy All, n00b here! I've noticed sometimes fishing there's trout or reds hitting the top of the water and I never seem to be able to catch them. What should I look for in a topwater lure to snag these suckers?

Finesse walking stick 096G from Strike Pro America is my new favorite.


Wooo wee, just replace the refreshwater hooks with saltwater ones and you have youself a great topwater.

Any of the above or on windy days when the water is choppy I like a Hula Popper.

I picked up a couple of the Spook Jrs. at Academy over the weekend. I got one dark color and one light color. haven't had a chance to try them out, but I'll also look into the other one's mentioned (especially the Hula Popper with the wind we've had lately \:\) Thanks all!
