When fishing a super spook and super spook Junior, sometimes during the retrieve, the lure will dive under the surface and is hard to get it to come back up. What’s the problem here? I use the super spook Junior, on a spinning rod with braid to leader 

There's a lot of difference between the two, but I've never had a problem with either of them staying above the water. The Junior is possible I guess, but I think you'd have a hard time getting a regular to go under. All I can imagine is you're using some kind of big snap, or something that's adding a lot of weight.

Fluorocarbon leader???

Sounds like you may be over working it. Just use straight braid and when you snap it,do it easy and on a slack line. 

I personally wouldn't throw either one on a spinning rod.

I had a lot of trouble with straight braid but I think I may be throwing it when its a little to windy what are the ideal conditions?

Some wind and clouds would be ideal around here.  Or, when you can see them chasing shad.

Not a fan of using a walker in the wind. Flat or a slight ripple is the only time i use them, anything above that i am getting a little noisier. 

No braid.  I fish most things on braid, but not my favorite topwater (Zara Spook). I use Yo-Zuri Hybrid but use strait fluoro if you prefer.  I would also be interested in seeing your retrieve. It’s not a jerkbait. The tip rhythm is subtle. 

I've come to really like 12# Suffix Advance line for all my topwater.   Easy to manage, casts well, floats and inexpensive.   Only time I've ever seen a spook dive is when I reel in very quickly for a new cast.  If your spook does dive, it should always just float back up if you stop so not sure what's causing your problem.  I use a snap (not a snap swivel) and have had no trouble, but it's even better to tie direct with a loop knot.

I fish a Super Spook JR a lot and in some pretty decent chop. Straight 20lb braid on a M/F casting rod. I don't know how people catch the hooks on the line during the retrieve but I almost never do and the braid helps keep the bait from diving under. I can also cast further and just reel into fish when they bite, which helps me to not pull it away from them if they miss the bait the first attempt. 

Prop baits work much better in choppy water conditions.  Years ago, this was my go-to bait when the water is rough.   The South Bend Nip-I-Diddee is a big fish lure.

So was the WoodChopper, but I find that a Spook will catch bass as well as a prop bait in all but windy conditions that catch the line and make working the bait all but impossible.  That said, it is likely not my first choice then.

I actually love a walking bait in wind and waves. But I use a Kicknocker.
