favorite "walk tha dog" top water bait

I voted for other. My new favorite is a Yo-Zuri bait that I don't know the name of. It has a soft, spongy coating and they walk amazingly well. Another favorite when I want a bait with a loud sound is the Rapala Skitter Walk.

I chose other. My favorite is the Spro Chug Minnow. I like this bait because it is easy to walk and it kind of spits as it walks and has a different profile than most walk the dog baits. My second favorite is probably the Zara Spook.

I voted Spook just because I've been throwing them for so long.

Got a Dalton Special at a yardsale quite some time ago. Used it for a long time, until I got worried about losing it. Found out lately, the fellow responsible for the original is making them again under the name Skinny Water Sam...

I picked the Vixen as a favorite, however I like and use all the ones selected.

Spro Prime Chug Minnow 35.  good luck finding it, DAGNABBIT!  why do the good ones always die young?

i rely on the old school spooks love em ... i have a box full of the spro chug minows too ,, havent had a chance to toss em tho ... they sure do look sweet ,,, and the hooks on the chug minnows are insanly sharp ...

lucky craft Sammy is just too expensive for me at the moment. unless someone wana donate heheh ;)

My vote was for the Vixen.

Rapala Skitter Walk

I have only used two, so I would have to say the Heddon spittin' image.

Heddon Spook (Spook Puppy specifically) Never had much luck with "walking" baits until late this summer, had some great action during late afternoon. They would just explode on it! ;D

I voted other-Storm Chug Bug. Maybe not a true walking type bait, but it does walk very well and will also spit, pop, and chug.

x2  I like the Jr Rattling Spook or the Puppy. The Sammy isn't my favorite, but there are some days when they will only eat the Sammy and not the Spook for some reason. :-?

LC Gunnish 95

While I do have and use most of the others on the list none of them come close to the number of fish I catch on the Gunnish.

Spittin image for numbers and the 2x4 for the big ones.

I seem to catch more on my Spook's than my Sammy's. The Sammy is easier to walk-the-dog with, but I catch more with the Spook.

I can't remember who makes it but I have several ZZ-Top baits that cast a mile, walk with ease and have an internal vibrator-get your minds out of the gutter- it must be a spring and a weight arrangement.

Slightly smaller than a spook. I think it might be made by Norman.

Spittin' Image pretty good too.

BPS Slim Dog.  I like that it has no rattles and slits on the throat for water spittin'.

Tough choice since they all have their time and place and some just plain out work better in certin bodies of water than others.

My top choices ormy most consistent producers would have to be

sammy 128

BPS slim dog-awesome cheap lure

super spook and ss jr.

I have been using spooks for a while with great luck. However, I just got a few sammy 100's and I really like the colors and action. I think they are a strong contender.

Rapala Skitter Walk - Easy to learn with, relatively inexpensive and easy to find...
