The Fisherman's Tips


Topwater Bite Busts Open

The Fisherman’s Tips has been overwhelmed with phone calls and emails from anglers letting us know that the fish have been all over topwater baits in the past two weeks. Early morning cloud cover and warming water temps have been the main reasons or theories explaining the surface bite flurry. Believe it or not, Memorial Day Weekend is already upon us and this time of year usually does kick off the topwater bite for many of us anglers throughout the country. 

The bait that’s getting most of the rave is from the Japanese tackle manufacture, Deps. The lure is called a Basirisky and comes in a 2.5” and 3” long version. It is made out of a super soft silicon featuring a unique configuration with back legs facing forward creating a crawling surface action.  The legs present a bigger profile for lurking bass looking up through the vegetation and they also leave a huge ripple on the water.  You have to check out its one of a kind crawling action here.

Adam Koda of Fontana, California was fishing Lake Skinner on May 20th,  in Temecula, California and took 8 fish all on the 3” Basirisky.

His biggest fish weighed in at at a whopping 8 lbs 9 ounces. 

He also commented that the Basirisky is so weedless that you have to work at it to get it hung up!!

The Delta in Northern California has also been reporting an excellent top water bite on Zara Spooks and the Deps Buzzjet. The Buzzjet can be seen in action as well.

This bait has been voted Japan’s Number 1 wake bait two years in a row by Japan’s Lure Magazine reader polls. It features a unique weight transfer system.  4 Stainless balls are strategically placed in a chamber, rolling both front-to-back and side-to-side.  The transfer system provides for great castability and also a side to side irregular surface action on the retrieve. 

Topwater fishing is everyone’s favorite type of fishing and the best time of year to do it is now. Pick up your favorite surface lures right here at www.thefishermans-tips.com

See you on the water.
