I went fishing a few weeks ago and was throwing a spittin image on fluorocarbon line (segar). I knew it would be hard since the floro sank, but I didn't think it affect my presentation as much as it did. What happened was, after the lure hit the water I began to retrieve by walking the dog, but after about 8 feet it started to pull under the after each twitch.  

I messed around after a few more cast and found that if you let the bait sit there for a few seconds so you're line can sink then begin to jerk your, the bait will actually walk under the water. If you don't get any hits from this then stop the bait and it will pop up to the surface, then do it all over again for another 3 feet.  

I have only tried this with the pop n image made by Excalibur, but im sure it will work with others.

Give it a try. Im sure you will like the action, and the fish should go wild.

Please let me know if anyone has tried this before, or if you try this after reading this.

any and all feed back would be greatly appreciated.

If you want a subsurface walk the dog effect or something comparable, why not just use a Bagleys Bang O Lure ( one of my best smallie baits ), Floating Rapala or even a Baby 1 Minus which has a wide wobble?

Exactly!

Fluorocarbon is probably the worst line you can use for topwaters. All I can say is slinky........

If the fish are line shy just use a fluorocarbon leader but for me straight braid works best and topwater bites are reaction bites so I don't really worry about any leader.

Subsurface walk the dog bait: Megabass Coayu Slide Sinker

Your right all these baits are good and I have caught fish with the Minus and jerk baits that way.

All im trying to say is it gives them something different to look at. Its different then any subsurface as far as profile and action.

When it comes to fluorocarbon I don't see why it is a bad choice. The line has very low stretch, it is unseen under water, and if you have ever thrown segar then you would know the line is stronger than most mono.

Also I have never heard or seen this Bagleys Bang O Lure. Is this lure common in most tackle stores?

If you can place a picture of one I would appreciate it.

That's a myth.

Or you could fish a floating Rogue and a variety of suspending jerkbaits.

If I'm fishing topwater, I want the lure on top of the water!
