Quick take
A 5 in topwater walking bait with super-stout hardware, designed for aggressive walk-the-dog retrieves.
The Heddon Super Spook is a 5-inch topwater walking bait in chartreuse that weighs 7/8 oz and carries #2 saltwater treble hooks. Anglers after redfish, speckled trout and bass use it to work the surface with a side-to-side walk-the-dog action, which a slow retrieve with long pulls brings out. It suits anglers who want a surface bait that covers both saltwater and freshwater shallows.
Best for

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
