Jitterbug

For well over 50 years, the Arbogast Jitterbug, with its wide, wagging action, has been helping anglers call fish to the surface and entice crushing topwater strikes. It's effective on bass, muskie, pike, and other gamefish. This classic bait creates a rhythmic, gurgling disturbance on the surface that hungry fish can't resist. Despite its well-earned reputation as a night-fishing marvel, the Arbogast Jitterbug is also effective dawn, dusk, and, if it's very cloudy, even at high noon. Its double-cupped lip is positioned at just the right angle to create a loud, splashing commotion on top. You can experiment to see if the fish want a steady cadence or a series of erratic twitched and pauses—once you have their attention, a violent strike is imminent. The compact body makes this low-profile bait cast like a bullet, so you can cover a lot of water. Two strong treble hooks are attached with specially designed mounts that keep them in the perfect position for solid hookups.
