Which topwater bait makes the most racket in your box? Pacemaker is mine but I know there are louder ones.

The weagle with the "swoosh" is one of the loudest lures you can throw.

This depends on what you mean by 'loud'. Put them on the hydrophone and your perspective will change.

Depends upon if you mean above water, or below. I never used a hydrophone, but Ryan Jinkerson and I used to get in a pool or end of dock, and toss lures. The hawg wobbler style and blobe style lures at the time, made the most noise to 'us' under water, followed by tapdancers, and other loose metal bladed lures. The tail rotators and straight creepers made the least noise, no matter how loud they 'plopped' on top. Creepers and tailbaits are still some of our best producers, so what it did was just give us some insight on where and when to at least give certain lures a try. That was 15 or so years ago. Since, we still reach for certain topwaters in certain conditions, lakes, times of year. Night fishing topwaters has taken on new meaning over the years, with certain lures chosen for different reasons.

Can't believe nobody mentioned the Nimmer Wolly Pog. Quite possibly the most irritating noise at the musky shows that he attends. I feel sorry for those in booths next to him.

There are different types of 'loud' underwater. The 'pop' from tail baits can be loud, but doesn't come close to wood to wood contact from the jointed baits and the metal noises of steel against wood. Plastic jointed lures that have segment to segment contact are also deafening.

'Loud' isn't always good.

Yep, I have recorded the flaptail/splashtail baits, the blade noise isn't real loud, but it is interesting and certainly loud enough..
