Q&A
Introduced in 1939, the Zara Spook's legendary ''walk-the-dog'' top water action has been written about more than any other fishing lure. To fish a Heddon Zara® Spook, use a rhythmic, slack-line retrieve that makes the Zara Spook walk from left to right, back and forth. The Zara Spook's plump profile is a tantalizing target for bass and pike. Hooks: two #1/0.

The classic walk-the-dog top water lureI catch bass of all sizes with the Zara Spook. No bass seems to mind the size of the lure. Perfect for evening top water fishing.
I have to admit though that it is my scariest lure. The hooks are large and they will snag just about anything. When I'm leaving the lake, this lure is always already off my line and in my tackle box.

The Ultimate TopwaterIf you fish topwaters, you fish a Spook. If you don't, you're missing out. These are, by far, the lures that can change your entire day. There are knock off lures by other companies, but you'll never beat a Spook. Blue/White, Red head/White body, Natural Mullet. There is not a saltwater gamefish that I have not caught with a Spook.

Make it dance!I'd never used either of these before.
After 10 minutes, I could make either one dance across the water just like a chased/excited minnow.
Great lures!

Bass dont hesitateThis Spook is great when using the walk the dog action next to weeds for big bass which will not hesitate to take the lure. It sorta acts as a popper when twitching the rod down. I was using the Leapord Frog color but I would recommend different colors for different times of day.

Great lurePurchased these lures on line, shipping was fast, I received them in days.
This lure has been extremely effective for smallmouth bass and northern pike. The lake I live on has an abundance of these species. Great in shallow as well as moderate depths. It draws fish from from 15' to 25', with it's action, either popping or on the retrieve.
It has become one of my favorites..

Very Good Topwater BaitGood lure for surface fishing as long as the water is clear of weeds and snags, could use weedless hooks. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Incredible lure!Obviously these are great lures, so this review is probably anticlimactic, however I just caught a HUGE bass out of a very heavily pressured area with a baby bass colored Zara Spook. They are well made, the action is great, and they cast like Tarantino. Do yourself a favor a buy one of these amazing lures.
Hello,
We are very sorry but we no longer make a Jimmy Houston spook.
Thank you,

Regular or Jr.?
When do you use the regular size, and when is it better to use a Jr.?
Asked by: PhantomWolfX
Thank you for your inquiry. According to the manufacturer, the best way to determine is if the fish seems like they are wanting a smaller profile it may be good to go down to the Jr size. If they are short striking the Zara spook a lot of times I will go to the smaller Jr and they seem to hit it a little better.

Does this spook have a knocker in it?
I want to buy this spook but I want to make sure it has a knocker in it. It would be nice if bass pro shops would put it in the description
Asked by: Salamander12
Nope. Heddon quit making Zaras with any rattle whatsoever.

Bone color?
for stripers and largemouth would bone be a good color?
Asked by: CDfish
I have caught some largemouths on the bone color (don't have stripers near me), but I would recommend you get at least one dark color, for when the conditions are better for dark than bone color.

Frog color?
Is the natural frog color, not the bull frog color, only good when used in areas that have a lot of frogs or have lilly pads? Or can it be used around matted vegetation no mater how many frogs there are?
Asked by: bass99
Each fishing location will be different; even each trip to the same area might have different results so there isn’t really a “Best” color to use when fishing. One color may work better one time but not as well the next time you fish. So, when selecting a lure color take a look at your surrounds (landscape and wildlife) to determine the color of lure to use. If the water is dark and murky (or stained) use bright and/or fluorescent colors that can draw the fish’s attention to the lure. If the water is clear, look around if the area and use colors which blend with the surrounds. If the area is rocky use a brown, tan, or a similar color. If there is grass and weeds then use more of the green colors. Each location will be different so try a good range of colors. Thank you for your question.
