Saw this listed on another site. I never took two looks at them but it seems some like 'em. Good for spring, summer, fall? Shallow I would guess. Feel free to praise it or trash it. How about as a toss back bait?
thanks -lobi

I throw both alot all through the season. The fish will come up a long way for them, so anywhere there are topwater relating fish, that is where I toss them. Basically, this is a buzzer on a wood body. Terry Moulton makes them.

Are most of Sworrals lures older then most of us on the board, or do they just get trashed that bad from fish?

If you throw them, they will come....;) Besides, I have some new baits, see?

Both are good baits but I prefer the Topper Stopper.  Surface lures work best when water temps are above 60 degrees.  Surface lures also seem to work best on stained water.  I use them mostly over shallow water with weeds or stumps or rocks during low light conditions.

 

I'm nuts about musky fishing.  Could you tell?

That is enough endorsment for me. Thanks you guys.

Now color choice? Frog? Black? Orange, Chart, nickle...Blades??

My topwater selection is very skinny and usually ammounts to twitching crankbaits. I need somthing new.

Black or orange or a combination of black & orange is what most of my topwaters are.
