Larger Top Water Baits

The Halco Roosta Popper 160 is perfect for targeting game fish that are aggressively  attacking bait fish near or on the surface.  The hardware on these poppers is of the highest quality and will stand up to big fish like tuna, GT's, dorado, and peacock bass. They are best used with a heavy spinning rod and reel due to the higher inches of line retrieved per crank.  We prefer to have braided line with a short 3' top shot of monofilament or fluorocarbon.

While designed with a blooping style retrieve in mind, the Roosta Haymaker can be simply wound in at speed or trolled for excellent results.The recommended method of retrieval for best results is to point the rod tip at the lure, retrieve any slack line and firmly sweep the rod tip in a downward motion approximately 45 degrees. Allow the lure to rest for several seconds and if a fish hasn't taken the lure repeat as necessary.

The Ima Big Stick topwater lure is the result of years of development by the Japanese engineering team at Ima and professional angler, Randy Pringle. Extremely easy to fish and impart excellent action, the Big Stick doesn't require a big swimbait rod either, it's actually designed for use with conventional gear. The bait's rear weighted design allows the bait to start up its characteristic action as soon as you start your retrieve, and it also helps increase casting distance and accuracy.

In addition to highly detailed finishes, massive eyes and a unique head, designed to push significant volumes of water, the Ima Big Stick also features eight individual sound chambers that when fished fast creates a huge ruckus, but also allows it to be popped subtly along the surface. Featuring a durable wire-through construction, heavier split rings and Owner hooks, the Ima Big Stick can stand up to any trophy fish - bass, musky, pike, stripers and various saltwater species. It will spit like a magnum popper, walk like the hardest-sashaying walking bait, and anglers don't have to be experts to make it do its thing.

The Clear Choice Tuna Propper is the latest addition to the Clear Choice Lure collection. It comes with 5x hooks and HD hardware, so it can be used right away. Species such as Big Tuna, GT's, and Snappers will be irresistibly drawn to this lure. It can be deployed by simply casting it out, or it can be slowly trolled through clean water following the boat, something not doable with most cast-able topwater baits. Its design mimics that of a flying fish or injured baitfish, leading to intense strikes. Prepare yourself for explosive action on the rod!

The Deps Brachiostick Topwater Bait, also known as the "remote controlled pencil popper," is a high-performance topwater lure engineered with an extreme rear center of gravity and long body design. This innovative construction allows for incredibly long casts that can reach boils or schooling fish off in the distance without spooking them—especially important in clear water situations where stealth is critical.

The unique body design features a rear center of gravity combined with a buoyant tail, creating a diagonal floating position that walks with ease thanks to the small spring weight. The variable balancer system produces a unique sound and sharp side-to-side movement that triggers explosive strikes. The downward-facing oval-shaped cup at the front shoots bubbles on the surface, imitating a small fish splashing on top while delivering better action when twitching or walking the dog.

Equipped with a 3-hook system featuring three sharp #3 hooks, the Brachiostick ensures superior hookup ratios. The slanted horizontal line eyes limit the range of motion to prevent hook tangling, allowing you to fish confidently without constant adjustments. This is a high-performance pencil popper that will leave you shaking your head after seeing how well it works and how far it casts.

Key Features:

• Extreme Rear Center of Gravity: Enables incredibly long casts to reach distant fish without spooking them
• Diagonal Floating Position: Buoyant tail creates unique posture for realistic presentation
• Variable Balancer System: Produces unique sound and sharp side-to-side movement
• Small Spring Weight: Allows the bait to walk with ease and natural action
• Oval-Shaped Cup: Shoots bubbles and creates baitfish splashing sounds
• 3-Hook System: Three sharp #3 hooks for superior hookup percentage
• Slanted Horizontal Line Eyes: Prevents hook tangling during retrieves
• Long Body Design: 147mm profile perfect for imitating larger baitfish

Specifications:

• Length: 147mm (5.78 inches)
• Weight: 31g (1.09 oz)
• Type: Floating pencil popper
• Hooks: Three #3 treble hooks
• Target Species: Largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, striped bass, pike

Retrieve Techniques:

• Walk-the-Dog: Classic side-to-side action with sharp movements
• Twitch Retrieve: Sharp twitches create bubble-shooting action
• Long-Distance Casting: Reach schooling fish or boils from a distance
• Stop-and-Go: Pause to let bait rest in diagonal floating position

Design Details:

The body features a rear center of gravity with a buoyant tail, creating a diagonal floating position. The small spring weight allows it to walk with ease, while the variable balancer gives it a unique sound and sharp movement as it moves side-to-side.

The downward-facing oval-shaped cup shoots bubbles on the surface and imitates a small fish splashing on top. The sharp movements add to the appeal and trigger big fish to bite. The cup design also makes baitfish sounds and provides better action when twitching or walking the dog.

Ideal Applications:

• Clear water situations requiring long-distance casts
• Schooling fish or surface boils
• Early morning and late evening topwater fishing
• Calm water conditions for maximum walking action
• When bass are feeding on larger baitfish
• Covering large areas of water efficiently

When you need a high-performance pencil popper that casts incredibly far and delivers sharp, fish-triggering action, the Deps Brachiostick is the ultimate choice for serious topwater anglers.

Storage Warning:

Store your lures in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and high temperatures. Avoid storing in hot vehicles or tackle boxes during warm months, as high temperatures can cause deformation or cracking due to air expansion. We are not responsible for damage caused by improper storage in high-temperature conditions.

The Deps Silent Killer is a deadly trout bait imitating bait and a “silent killer” created by a completely new manufacturing method, which is different from all other big baits.

The body is covered with a subliminated material that includes a hollow core made of ABS resin and a realistic soft shell. This big bait has a unique soft sound and soft vibration and texture that is as close to the real thing as possible.

It can be fished along the surface, deadsticked or even with a cranking retrieve. Great for targeting the biggest bass that need to take a second look to commit, and great for creating memories and establish a tank of a new Personal Best.

ABS CORE BODY

The ABS hollow-core body allows for crisp and sharp gliding action and allows the bait to feature a micro spring weight inside of the bait for added appeal. The weight is added outside of the front core and lets you easily tune the lure and adjust the weight by removing the soft shell.

SPRING WEIGHT MICRO VIBE SYSTEM

The spring weight system is mounted on the head and produces micro-vibrations each time the weight is shaken. This helps to trigger bites with a knocking sound that is created when the lure is retrieved.

POLYCARBONATE LIP

 The wide polycarbonate lip is very strong and the coffin shape helps to avoid snags. It will dive like a crankbait and create a powerful vibration.

HOOK (175: # 1/145: # 3)

The hooks have a smooth surface for better hook presentation. This hook was carefully selected because of the size of the bass that bite this lure and the tin color helps to camouflage the hook against the belly of the bait. For added attraction, you can replace the stock hooks with feathered trebles to give it a more natural look, especially in current.

The Baitsanity Antidote TUG Glide Bait features Baitsanity’s premier Glide-Leap system that relies on a sliding weight to allow the bait to leap to the surface on an aggressive twitch and swim underwater on a steady retrieve. This system gives anglers the ability to target fish with explosive topwater action, or transition to a more traditional subsurface gliding motion which puts uniquely comprehensive control in the angler’s hands.

The Baitsanity Antidote TUG Glide Bait also comes outfitted with ground-breaking auxiliary features that take it to a whole new level. Just over the premium front treble hook anglers will find a set of carbon fiber fins. Situated near the rear hook are Baitsanity’s new removable, custom Fish Knits fins that are perfect for absorbing scent and creating micro bubbles on the retrieve. The tail of the TUG is buoyant and houses a layer of carbon fiber that is carefully crafted to help the glider maintain perfect balance and slowly float toward the surface. 

• Glide-Leap System for versatile topwater and subsurface action
  
• Fish Knits fins hold scent and can be removed for washing or replacement
  
• Carbon fiber pectoral fins guard against hook rash
  
• 3D scaling, gill rakers, mandibles, eyes, and fins
