Top Water

April 20, 2015 by Clark Wendlandt

556879_435055703246323_1402475398_nI love the time of year when the water warms enough to be able to throw top water anytime you want. This typically happens in Texas around April and lasts sometimes into November. Everybody loves top water. The thrilling surface action; there’s just nothing really like it. For me though it serves a couple of different purposes. Number one, it’s a great search bait – you can cover a lot of water with a top water and often times, even if the fish doesn’t strike the bait, it may bump or ripple the water to let you know he’s there. It also catches really big fish. People don’t think about topwater being synonymous with big fish, but that is a fact. Sometimes you have to work them really fast or maybe really slow, but they will often get you a big bite.

The top water family is big from buzzin’ frogs to buzz baits to prop baits to poppers to walking baits to frogs. They all have their place.

I always have several tied on. So pick one up and get ready for an explosion

Turkey down! Called this one in, and he came on a dead run. To me, there’s honestly nothing better than turkey hunting. Bass Pro Shops Cabela's TrueTimber #teamoutdoors #bassproshops #cabelas #truetimber #turkeyhunting ... See more

When it comes to throwing a crankbait, you’ve got several line options, but Sunline Sniper is my go-to! #sunline #sunlinepro #strikeking #ownerhooks #teamoutdoors #bassfishing #fishingandhuntingtexas Fishing & Hunting Texas ... See more

That was a rough tournament. Fork is a Great Lake but you have to be exactly on the right deal to compete. Day 2 just snowballed on me and I failed to catch ‘em. I’m moving past it and looking forward to Neely Henry. #teamoutdoors #basselite ... See more

2020 Bassmaster Angler of the Year

2020 Bassmaster Angler of the Year It is hard to put in to words how it feels to have the greatest accomplishment of my career occur in the context of the most chaotic year of my life, and I imagine many of yours too – 2020. But in the midst of all the chaos, my job, while disrupted for a few months, resumed after a few months thanks to the efforts made by B.A.S.S to provide a full season for us. I am so appreciative to them and my fellow anglers for pulling together to make this happen. And … Read More...
