Spring Topwater?? Never Miss The Bite Again!

Don't be the guy who misses the start of the Early Spring Topwater this year! It sneaks up on your every year but this time you're going to be prepared! The fish start keying on the surface much sooner than most anglers realize. These 2 tricks will make it easy for you to know when the bite has begun!


There are two key indicators of an early season topwater bite. The first is the presence of fresh grass growth. When the grass begins to develop, the topwater bite almost always follows suit. The 2nd is the presence of baitfish in the shallows. If there are minnows up shallow, its time to start throwing topwater during the warm afternoon periods.

Frog And Toad Tricks You Need To Try!

Check out these tips on Toads and Soft Body Frogs to increase your catch rates today. We all love topwater but at times the hook up ratio can be frustrating. Tim goes in depth with bait styles, shapes, hooks, hooksets and more to help you become a great topwater fisherman. 

Color selection is very simple with toads and frogs. We recommend using as few colors as possible, focusing primarily on white, black, and chartreuse. 

Once you understand the differences in foot shapes and the sounds they will emit, choosing the right soft body frog is simple. Pair it with the right hook and train yourself to slow down your hookset and your hook up ratio will increase dramatically.

Teckel Sprinker Frog | Insane Slow Motion Blow Ups!

We tried the new Teckel Sprinker Frog this week and the fish were going crazy! The bites were explosive and the impacts were insane!

The Sprinker combines the weedless benefits of a hollow body frog with the sound of a whopper plopper style bait. Now you can cover water, draw fish in from a larger area, but still still fish over the top of vegetation. Its a great combination! 

If you haven't tried the Sprinker yet, tie one and see how the bass in your lake react to a new sound and movement they've never seen around the mats before. Good luck!
