FALL TOPWATER FISHING: The BEST Baits For EVERY Situation!

Fall is topwater time! When it comes to catching bass in shallow water, every bass angler knows that topwater is king. The question isn't if you should throw topwater, its which topwater you should throw next. Today we're breaking down the different styles of topwater, what they're for, and how to use them this Fall. 

From poppers to walking baits, buzz baits to wake baits, Tim is explaining what each style of bait is for. In addition to the baits themselves he also gives key color recommendations so you can fish with confidence. 

Below you'll find links to our favorite baits, favorite colors, as well as the gear we use to fish them. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
