| I'm looking at the possibility of adding a different surface bucktail to the arsenal. Currently I have a Mister Twister Super PropTop. In research I've come across five options:
Grim Reaper Buzzer
Marv's Hairy Bug
Musky Buster Top Walker
TNT Triklops
Windels Surface Buster
Any one out there have experience using any of these or other surface bucktails? Are they worth having in the box or just I just go in a different direction and get a different lure altogether? Thanks.

Location: KY | I have found the Gim Reaper too light to cast. I can only throw it maybe 45 feet. I picked up a Top Walker this winter. We will see how that does.

Location: Pewaukee, WI | Grim Reaper Buzzer! This lure brought my only top water fish this year. I like the way you can tune the blades and retreive at different speeds to break the water surface clickity-clacking all the way back to the boat. The 41" that ate the buzzer came out of the water like a missle! |

Location: Madison, WI | I'm a big fan of the Top Walker. For me it seems to produce best when the fish are aggressive / quick but you can't get them to make the commitment. Craig |

Location: West Chicago, IL | I have found the Topwalker to be a great lure. Not only does it attract weel but it hooks and holds fish with no problem. The other upside is that is a very durable lure. I caught 10 muskies in one week on it and it still worked like it was almost new. Mike |

| Topwalker is the way to go.It hooks and holds fish very well especialy if you change the hooks to #5's.Put a shitload of big fish in the boat the last two years.Even works well in rough water.Keep your hooks razor sharp
