Freshwater Fishing Tackle – Rods, Reels & Gear

The Loud One, Built to Call Fish From a Distance

The Heddon Super Spook is the big-water member of the Spook family — 5" and 7/8 oz with a loud rattle chamber and three #4 treble hooks. Where the standard Zara Spook is a finesse-of-the-surface bait, the Super Spook is built to be found: heavier, louder, and rigged with stouter hardware. Six colors in stock.

Why Anglers Reach for the Super Spook

Three things separate it from the rest of the family. The extra weight buys you casting distance, which matters on big open flats and when the wind is up. The louder rattle pulls fish from farther in chop or stained water where a quieter bait goes unnoticed. And the third treble means a fish that swipes at the tail or the belly still finds a hook — Heddon rates it at roughly 30% more hooking power than the two-hook models.

The Problem With Undersized Topwaters in Wind

A 3/4 oz walker on a windy flat is a frustrating bait. You lose distance on the cast, the chop hides the surface disturbance, and the sound doesn't carry. Fish that would eat never know it's there. The Super Spook's weight punches through wind and its rattle carries — which is the whole reason to own one alongside a standard Spook rather than instead of it.

What Sets It Apart

• 5" and 7/8 oz — the heaviest walker in the standard Spook lineup
• Three #4 treble hooks for roughly 30% more hooking power than two-hook models
• Loud rattle chamber, tuned louder than the Zara Spook's
• Stout hardware built for hard strikes
• Long-casting profile for covering big water
• Effective in freshwater and inshore saltwater

The Right Pick If…

• You're fishing wind, chop, or stained water where a quieter bait disappears
• You need distance to cover a big flat without running the boat over fish
• You're targeting bigger-than-average fish and want the extra hook
• You fish inshore saltwater as well as freshwater

Where It Sits in the Spook Family

The Super Spook is the top of the standard lineup. Reach for something else when:

• Conditions calm down — the Zara Spook (4.5") is the everyday size and draws more bites on a flat, quiet surface.
• Fish get picky — the Zara Puppy (3", 1/4 oz) matches small forage and pressured fish.
• You want the same size without the noise — the Super Zara Spook is 4.5" with no rattle chamber at all.
• You're in hard saltwater duty — the Super Spook XT carries extra-stout hardware for the same 5" profile.

Best Techniques

• Long-cast walking: Bomb it across a flat and walk it the whole way back — the distance is the point
• Wind-lane retrieve: Work it along the seam where wind-driven chop meets calmer water
• Burn and kill: On schooling fish, speed it up and then stop it dead in the middle of the boil
• Inshore flats: Same walking cadence over grass and oyster edges for redfish and speckled trout

Best Conditions

• Windy days and choppy surface — where this bait beats the smaller models outright
• Stained to lightly muddy water, where sound matters more than sight
• Large open flats, main-lake points, and long shorelines
• Inshore saltwater grass flats and oyster bars

Best For

• Species: Largemouth bass, striped bass, redfish, speckled trout, pike
• Techniques: Long-cast walking, wind-lane retrieve, burn and kill
• Environments: Open freshwater flats, main-lake points, inshore saltwater grass and oyster bars

Key Features

• 5" length, 7/8 oz
• Three #4 treble hooks
• Loud rattle chamber
• Stout hardware for hard strikes
• Six colors: Bone, Foxy Shad, Clear, Okie Shad, Bone Silver, Nickel
• Freshwater and inshore saltwater rated

Specs

Tackle Express Tips

• Give it a real rod: At 7/8 oz this is not a medium-power bait. A medium-heavy or heavy rod with a moderate tip moves it properly on slack line and drives three trebles home at distance.
• Braid for distance, mono for forgiveness: 40-50 lb braid gets you every yard of the cast and a solid hookset a long way out. Straight mono is more forgiving of premature hooksets if you're prone to them.
• Let the wind pick the bait: Glass-calm morning, throw the Zara Spook. The moment there's a ripple and the bites slow down, switch to this one before you switch colors.

FAQ

How is this different from the Zara Spook?
Size, sound, and hooks. The Super Spook is 5" against the Zara Spook's 4.5", its rattle is louder, and it carries three #4 trebles instead of two hooks. Choose it for wind, stained water, distance, and bigger fish; choose the Zara Spook for calm conditions and more bites.

Can I use it in saltwater?
Yes — it's a proven redfish and speckled trout bait on inshore flats. If you're fishing saltwater hard and regularly, the Super Spook XT carries extra-stout hardware in the same 5" profile.

Why three hooks?
Topwater strikes are frequently misses. A third treble covers the middle of the bait, so a fish that hits short or swipes at the belly still finds a point. Heddon rates the three-hook layout at roughly 30% more hooking power.

Three Baits in One. Master of All of Them.

The Ima Square Bill Crankbait is Bassmaster Elite Angler Bill Lowen's signature design — a bait he dreamed about for decades and finally brought to life through countless conversations with Ima's engineers in Japan. Most square bills do one thing well. The Ima Square Bill does everything well: burn it, wake it, twitch it, or deflect it off cover. Mix them all on a single retrieve and watch what happens.

Built Around an Earth-Shaking Wobble

The Ima Square Bill's stubby, rounded body produces a wide, aggressive wobble that displaces water and triggers reaction strikes from bass holding tight to cover. The computer-chip lip deflects off wood, rock, and laydowns with a natural, erratic kick that mimics a fleeing baitfish. And two sticky-sharp Owner #6 treble hooks nail even the short strikers — though most bass absolutely choke this bait down.

Why Most Square Bills Have a Weakness

Most square bills are specialists. Some burn well but lose their action when waked. Others deflect off cover but fall apart on a fast retrieve. The Ima Square Bill was engineered to have no weakness — it performs at every speed and in every situation. That versatility is what makes it Bill Lowen's go-to bait and a must-have in any crankbait lineup.

Bill Lowen's Favorite Retrieve

Bill's preferred technique is to mix it all up on a single retrieve — twitching to waking, then reeling it down to three feet and burning it. That unpredictable, multi-speed presentation keeps bass guessing and triggers strikes from fish that have seen every standard crankbait retrieve. The Ima Square Bill is the only bait that can pull it off without losing its action.

The Right Pick If...

• You want a square bill that performs at every retrieve speed
• You're fishing shallow cover — wood, rock, laydowns, docks, and riprap
• You want a bait that deflects off structure with a natural, erratic kick
• Standard square bills are getting ignored on pressured water
• You want a tournament-proven design from a Bassmaster Elite pro

Best Retrieve Techniques

• Burning: Fast, steady retrieve to cover water quickly and trigger reaction strikes from aggressive fish
• Waking: Slow retrieve that keeps the bait just below the surface, creating a visible wake — deadly in low-light conditions
• Twitching: Erratic rod-tip twitches to create a darting, fleeing action — great for finicky fish
• Deflecting: Cast into cover and let the bait deflect off wood, rock, and laydowns — the kick on contact triggers reaction strikes
• Mixed Retrieve: Bill Lowen's favorite — twitch, wake, burn, and deflect all on one retrieve

Best Conditions

• Spring pre-spawn and spawn when bass are shallow and aggressive
• Fall when bass are chasing shad in shallow water
• Anytime bass are holding tight to shallow cover — wood, rock, docks, and riprap
• Stained to moderately clear water where the wobble and color carry
• Low-light periods when a waking retrieve draws fish from a distance

Best For

• Species: Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Spotted Bass
• Techniques: Burning, Waking, Twitching, Deflecting, Mixed Retrieve
• Conditions: Shallow cover, stained water, spring pre-spawn, fall shad patterns

Key Features

• Bill Lowen (Bassmaster Elite) Signature Series design
• Stubby, rounded body produces an earth-shaking wide wobble
• Computer-chip lip deflects naturally off wood, rock, and laydowns
• Two sticky-sharp Owner #6 treble hooks
• Performs at every retrieve speed — burn, wake, twitch, or deflect
• No weakness — a true master of all square bill techniques
• 8 color patterns to match any forage or water condition

Models & Colors

Tackle Express Tips

• Match Color to Water Clarity: In clear water, go with natural patterns like Bluegill, Fred's Perch, or Silver Lining. In stained or murky water, reach for high-visibility colors like Chartreuse Smash, Barred Black Back Chart, or Hot Craw.
• Use Fluorocarbon: 12–15 lb fluorocarbon line sinks and keeps the bait in the strike zone longer. It also has less stretch than mono, giving you better feel for deflections and a more solid hookset.
• Let It Deflect: Don't steer the bait away from cover — aim directly at laydowns, stumps, and rocks. The natural kick on contact is one of the most strike-triggering moments in crankbait fishing.

FAQ

What depth does the Ima Square Bill run?
The Ima Square Bill is a shallow-running crankbait designed for the 1–3 foot depth range, making it ideal for fishing over shallow flats, around docks, and through shallow wood and rock cover.

What rod setup works best?
A medium or medium-heavy 7'–7'4" fiberglass or composite crankbait rod with a 6:1 reel and 12–15 lb fluorocarbon is ideal. The softer tip of a fiberglass rod loads up on the cast and keeps fish pinned during the fight without pulling hooks.

How is the Ima Square Bill different from other square bills?
Most square bills excel at one or two techniques. The Ima Square Bill was specifically engineered by Bill Lowen to perform equally well when burned, waked, twitched, or deflected off cover — making it one of the most versatile shallow crankbaits available.

The Keitech Flapper Grub 4" brings back the classic grub style that exploded onto the bass fishing scene in the mid-1990s — updated with Keitech's modern engineering. The Flapper Grub is built for "chucking and winding" through the middle of the water column, and works equally well buzzed on the surface on a no-sinker rig. An upgraded take on an old favorite that still gets the job done.

Key Features

• Length: 4"
• Weight: approx. 1/4 oz
• Pack quantity: 7 per pack
• Recommended hook: Offset 1/0 or 2/0
• 7 colors available — Silver Shad, Sight Flash, Lime Chartreuse, Rootbeer, Green Pumpkin PP, Black, Pearl

Hook Hold System

The Hook Hold system positions the hook at the optimum location and prevents slippage, keeping the Flapper Grub running true on the retrieve.

Crank Guard Head Design

The Crank Guard recesses the hook into the head for improved weedlessness, added rigidity, and protection from debris on the retrieve.

The Keitech Neko Camaron 5.5" was developed for success in the ultra-pressured waters of Japan, using the Neko rig technique to duplicate the defensive posture of a crawfish. On the fall, the articulated claws flutter seductively. Once on the bottom, small rod tip movements cause the bait to sway sideways and shake — a highly realistic craw imitation that triggers strikes in heavily pressured conditions.

Built with a special blend of plastics for enhanced action, salted for weight and feel, and loaded with Keitech's squid scent to complete the package.

Key Features

• Length: 5.5"
• Weight: approx. 1/4 oz each
• Pack quantity: 7 per pack

Rigging Instructions

Use a 6mm O-ring positioned between the side fins for the Neko rig. Multiple effective rigging techniques are illustrated below.

The most unique offering is the Rapala Crush City Bronco Bug. The Bronco Bug offers a body with actions that most bass haven’t seen before. Double-sided ribs allow the angler to rig either side of bait to maximize usage. Hinged arms create unique dual actions. Forward-facing legs provide subtle, secondary action with the slightest movement.

Features:

• Dolphin-Like Swimming Action
• “Bronco Buck” Kick when Jigged
• Soft Ribbed Hook Slots on Both Sides Maximize the Life of the Bait and Protect Hook Point
• Smart Injection Technology™ Combines Custom Combinations of Color, Flake, Salt and Scent, that are Added Precisely Where Needed for the Perfect Presentation

If you ever find yourself looking for new set of Toit Fishing Crimpers, Crimping Pliers or a Swagger, ask a couple of questions first. What is torque and compressive strength? Torque rotational force represents the capability of force to affect something in a rotational motion. Compressive strength is basically the amount of load a specific area of a material can bear.

These 2 areas were the most essential problems to solve with the design strategy of our crimping pliers. The reduced surface area at the business end, in conjunction with the short distance to the pliers fulcrum (pivot point where pliers rotate), has allowed us to maximize torque and deform crimps. This easily allows us to crimp 400lb Multi-strand Stainless Cable and 400lb Mono or Fluoro leader material using either aluminum, copper or brass crimps. And it fits in your pocket!

Designed specifically for crimping, they're perfect for fishing trips abroad and boat trips saving on space and weight. Take a look at our "Toit" crimping technique used for all suitable aluminum crimps

The Savage Gear Pulse Tail Shiner LT 7" are great from bass to redfish, Northern pike to speckled trout, many predators rely on some blend of vision and smell to locate prey; but across the board, vibration and water displacement play a significant role in forage location. Savage Gear capitalizes on these predatory instincts with the new family of Pulse Tail soft plastic baits.

Comprising the Pulse Tail Bluegill, Pulse Tail Shiner, Pulse Tail Mullet and Pulse Tail Baitfish, this innovative lineup excels at stimulating a predator’s feeding instinct. The first three baits are designed after particular forage, while the Pulse Tail Baitfish presents a more broadly applicable form that easily resembles a wide range of freshwater and saltwater forage species. For each of these models, the split rear fin design creates a realistic pulse swimming action that mimics the surge of a fleeing forage fish.

The Lead Masters Swimbait Head in Yellow is the high-visibility version of the Lead Masters Swimbait Head, featuring a yellow powder coat finish that provides maximum visibility in stained water, turbid conditions, and low-light environments where natural or white head colors lose effectiveness. The yellow head is a proven attractor color for Yellowtail, Calico Bass, and surf species that key on high-contrast, high-visibility presentations. Features Mustad hooks and a durable powder coat finish. Hook size scales with weight across 8 sizes from 1/4 oz to 3 oz. 2 per pack.

Key Features

• Yellow Powder Coat — High-Visibility Attractor Color — Yellow is the highest-visibility color in the swimbait head lineup; the yellow head is most effective in stained and turbid water where natural or white head colors lose visibility, in low-light conditions where a bright head color provides a visible target, and as an attractor color that triggers reaction strikes from Yellowtail, Calico Bass, and other species that key on high-contrast presentations; yellow is also effective in clear water as an attractor color when fish are not responding to natural presentations.
• Mustad Hooks — Trusted Hook Quality — Mustad is one of the most recognized and trusted hook manufacturers in fishing; Mustad hooks provide consistent point sharpness, hook gap geometry, and wire strength for reliable hooksets on swimbait presentations across freshwater and saltwater species.
• Hook Size Matched to Weight — Hook size scales with jig weight across the full range: 2/0 for the 1/4–3/8 oz, 3/0 for the 1/2 oz, 4/0 for the 3/4–1 oz, and 6/0 for the 1.5–3 oz; matching hook size to swimbait size ensures the hook point exits at the correct position in the bait for a reliable hookset.

• 2 Per Pack — Two jig heads per pack across all sizes.

Size Selection Guide

Best For

• Stained & Turbid Water — The primary advantage of the yellow head; yellow remains highly visible in off-color water where natural and white head colors lose effectiveness; the high-contrast yellow head provides a visible target for fish in stained water conditions where reduced light penetration limits the effectiveness of natural color presentations.
• Yellowtail — Yellow is a proven Yellowtail trigger color; the yellow head paired with a matching or contrasting swimbait trailer is effective for Yellowtail on jig presentations; use heavier weights (1–3 oz) for getting the bait down to depth where Yellowtail are holding.
• Calico Bass — Attractor Presentations — Yellow is an effective attractor color for Calico Bass around kelp and structure, particularly in low-light conditions and stained water; the high-visibility yellow head triggers reaction strikes from Calico Bass that are not responding to natural color presentations.
• Surf Fishing — Heavier weights (1–3 oz) for surf fishing with large paddle tail swimbaits; the yellow head is highly visible in the turbid, aerated water of the surf zone where natural colors are less effective; effective for Barred Surfperch, Corbina, and other surf species that key on high-visibility presentations.
• Low-Light & Dawn/Dusk — The yellow head provides a high-visibility profile during dawn and dusk when light levels are low and fish are actively feeding; effective as a transition color between the glow head (night) and natural/white head (full daylight) presentations.

The Deps Frilled Shad 4.7 Inches is a realistic reproduction of streamlined baitfish with enhanced real action that trembles and rolls, perfectly imitating smelt and other baitfish that live in many waters. The bait features a quivering action and unique twisting swimming action that triggers strikes from bass feeding on small forage fish.

During the retrieve, a rolling action with shaking from side to side is created automatically—just swim it back and the bait will do the rest. The ultra-realistic body mold includes lifelike eyes that make it look just like a baitfish, getting more bites in tough situations when bass are wary or pressured. Available in two versions with 0% salt content for maximum action and 10% salt for better casting distance.

The innovative fan-shaped lip that spreads over the head passes the water stream around the bait and creates a rolling action with unique trembling motion. The lip acts as a brake to reduce movement more slowly, making it possible to effectively work rocks and sticks where bass live. Since the hook is hidden, the lip also acts like a weedguard, allowing you to fish through cover without constant snags.

Key Features:

• Fan-Shaped Lip: Creates rolling action with unique trembling motion
• Quivering Action: Realistic trembling and rolling mimics live baitfish
• Unique Twisting Swim: Side-to-side shaking action triggers strikes

Retrieve Techniques:

• Straight Swim: Steady retrieve showcases natural rolling and trembling
