Quick take
A 3-1/2 inch saltwater walk-the-dog topwater designed for redfish, trout, and snook.
The Super Spook Jr. is a 3.5 inch, half-ounce walking topwater bait in the Red Head finish. It is worked with a rhythmic walk-the-dog retrieve that swings it side to side across the surface like a wounded baitfish. Two treble hooks and a smaller body make it a fit for anglers chasing redfish, trout and snook on top.
Best for
- Saltwater flats and inshore fishing for redfish and trout
- Dawn and dusk feeding periods in shallow water
- Anglers experienced with slack-line topwater technique
Skip if
- You fish freshwater exclusively
- You prefer floating poppers over walking baits
Strengths
- Saltwater-tough construction with strong hardware that resists corrosion
- Explosive topwater action mimics fleeing baitfish or shrimp
- Two sharp hooks ensure solid hook-ups on hard-charging saltwater species
Trade-offs
- Walk-the-dog technique is difficult to master and tiring to execute
- 1/2 oz weight limits distance in high winds
- Red head color may spook wary fish; other colors offer different situations

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.
