Zara Spook Topwater Blow-Up 4.5 LB Bass with Video!

[Rando]

Went out Sunday evening to see if the topwater bite had turned on yet here in Connecticut. It was about 7:00 PM, overcast skies, calm, air temp of about 65 (water temps low to mid 60's). Tossed out the Zara Spook and had one of those torpedo topwater strikes!!! Ended up landing a nice 4.5 lb largemouth. The Zara Spook is a GREAT bait! You can cast it a country mile and the walk-the-dog action of the bait is about as good as it gets! Here's the video!!

sweet catch! Just wondering but is in the middle of that lake real deep or is it like 5-6ft?

Nice video Rando. Always a joy to watch. I would like to get one of those one day.

Great fish man! Nice catch, I might try tossing a spook next time I get cloudy is it don't get in the weeds to bad.

I was wondering too, is their some brush piles, submergent grass or something?

No, this is a very deep lake..deepest part is just over 100ft. I would guess that cast landed in 15 feet of water and the strike was in 10-12. There is a very distinct weedline that forms along the shoreline of this lake and this time of year the Spook works well from shore. Once the weeds surface we'll switch to frogs.
