is a silent topwater lure usually better for bass or is a rattling topwater lure usually better?
(read all my Q&A)
Answers
A:
I like topwater lures with and without rattles. Some fisherman say they scare the fish, not me. Majority of the time I fish topwater with a rattle usually good results.
A:
Rattle is the best make some noiseA:
Rattling by FAR!!!!! i have 2 different ones, the rattling and the silent ......Rattle = 10X more fish!!!A:
i have pop r's hula poppers and jitter bugs and for me the pop r and hula popper are the two best with the pop r the best because of the ball inside
A:
This depends on the mood of the fish. Many times, the extra rattle can be an attractant for fish that may be in a neutral or negative mood, however, sometimes fish will respond better to a "silent" hard bait. The best choice would be to have a variety of baits, and allow the fish to decide which that they like best.Details:
is this better or worse than the skitter pop?Answers

A:
I would say that the Chug Bug is more effective overall, but each has the abilityto catch fish.
Here is a limit of fish I caught on the chug bug at Toledo Bend, La on a 3x5 table.

A:
Chugbugs are the best topwater bait on the market today... I like the perch color the best . It's a bigger bait that you can pop softly or pop hard depending on the mood of the fish. And it can also be used in a walk the dog motion that you really can't do with a skitter pop because of it's smaller size. Most of my bigger fish came from using a chugbug..

A:
I have been useing the chug bug since i was 5 so i may be a little biased but i have caught a lot of trophy fish on the chug bug . I have also fished the skitter pop and i wasn't impressed with its spitting action. With the chug bug you can pop it ,spit it, twitch it, and walk it its a good all around bait.Answers
A:
Bullfrog or Nartual Perch (not sold at Bass pro)A:
My fav is the 2 1/2 " - 1/4 oz. Bone color. it is quite a search bait and they never have trouble finding it or hitting it.A:
baby bass and tennesee shad
Top 1000 Contributor
A:
it depends on the water color or what time of day you use it. I use more of the natural colors because it is good in almost any condition and water type, but the more flashy one could be used in darker or stained water.A:
The best color for my area is Tenessee Shad. It seems to out fish all other most of the time.A:
I like the bluish/chrome and the frog color with white belly.A:
Personal favorite is Black and redDetails:
I was wondering if the hooks get tangled up when both are turned to the middle of the lure. It's happened to me on some other poppers while fishing and has cost me countless fish.Answers
A:
yes, unfortunatly that is a downfall of topwater poppers, the front treble will get caught up on the swivelA:
bass99,I've not had that issue with a chug Bug but get it all the time with the Pop-N-Image lure.
A:
I havent had a problem with this.

A:
i have been using this lure for a while now and it has never happend to me while i was using it.A:
It's never happened to me with the chug bug.A:
Yes sometimes the line get caught on the first hook, but i found it helps to make smooth casts and not stop the lure suddlenly.A:
very rarely..the line sometimes does
Top 250 Contributor
A:
no they do not but you should get a different feather hook for the rearAnswers
A:
Stained you mean , like murkey??? if so the Bullfrog #04 or the Nartural perchA:
Beastly,My suggestion would be some bright color like PHANTOM CHARTREUSE or Bone for muddy water. Black may also work well - just as it would at night.
A:
solid black should make the best silhouette on the surface...that's what i'd useA:
For cloudy or dirty water should stay with a darker lureA:
Tennessee Shad the absolute best...they stopped making the other best for some reason..Blue Shad
A great lure, my favorite beside the Spro Frog for topwater, and be careful...those hooks can be dangerous
Good Luck!

I DON' T FISH STAINED WATER MUCH BUT IF I DID I'D CHOOSE THE PERCH COLOR FIRST OR THE BLACK & BLOOD RED GILLS . THE MAIN THING IS DON'T BE AFRAID TO POP IT GOOD TO LET THEM KNOW IT'S THERE..Answers
A:
Marketing calls it the "Chug Bug® MadFlash". It is a 4 3/8 " - 7/8 oz. bait. This size is also available in the standard STORM® Chug Bug but for some reason not in the Rattlin' Chug Bug.A:
yes it's made for saltwater...but no reason you can't use it for big game freshwaterA:
I dont think so.A:
Not sure about a Magnum size. Then biggest i have seen or used is the 3-3/4" but the also make a saltwater series in new colors just replace the hooks with fresh water hooks
A:
Yes the saltwater Chug Bugs are a bit larger (4-3/4") and can be found by doing an item search for item number 38-257-326-01 .Details:
