Spooked 'em
While it wasn't picture worthy, I am excited to say that I got my first top-water fish since the Winter started. I was throwing a Sara Spook (baby bass) Counting the lure, the fish might have weighed 1 lbs, but it is still exciting to catch on the TW.

nothing like a topwater bite, and a lot of the times a smaller fish will explode more than a big fish. congrats.

the clear zara spook is my favorite lure...not even a close second......although it definitly slows down quite a bit once the fall rolls in and temps drop
