i been hearing this for quite a while now and decided to buy one 3 days ago.
alright so heres the deal,it was very cloudy and full cloud cover,wind of 5 mph and there was a little chop in the water.the first thing that went through my mind was topwater.the conditions were perfect!!low light and chop on the water.i knew the fish werent suspended because i could see them attacking shad in the shallow areas.so i found the sharpest dropoff i could find.it was a big break,one part ranging from 5 to 3 feet,and the other part was about 10 the rest of the way.i found some trees in the water from hurricane katrina and decided i would run my topwater parallel to the trees.so i went to my topwater bag and saw that unopened zara spook,just had to try it.tied it on and put some yum attracant on it and it was ready to fly.took about 15 casts to get a strike and it was probbaly a 5 pound fish.the reason i said probbally was because i never got it to the boat.i saw him blow up on it and reeled up the slack and felt the fish and set the hook.i missed him it happened four times the next hour and a half.then they stoped hitting it.it probbally had something to do with the wind.i saw that they stoped feeding on the shad and they probbally were suspened.knowing this i grabed a white/chartruese buzzbait and caught two small ones in a half an hour. i dont know what happened with the spook.i never have that problem with a pop-r or any other topwater. I WAS SUPOSED TO BE PRE-FISHIN FOR THE TOURNAMENT hmmmm i was usin a 7 foot medium heavy rod,i dont know what happened does anybody have this problem with spooks???
