top water lure reviews
« on: October 21, 2011, 02:45:05 PM »
the dogX junior megabass surface lure is one of the biggest and more expensive bream top water lures on the market. If you can afford there $35-$40 price tag there a must in any serious breamers tackle box

the lucky craft sammy lures are probably the go to top water lure for all comp anglers, and at around the $20 mark are priced well compared to the dogx juniors

the ecogear px55f, another good topwater lure to have with the surface bite just about to hot up

the bassday sugerpens are a good surface lure

atomic hardz k9 walker is a good option if your budget or brains dont allow to lose a $20 plus lure

ive never used this, but if dizzy borg does, then i dare say the things work

dogx jrs are a highly over rated lure yes they catch bream but there are many other lures out there for around the 20 mark that are just as good if not better, id pick sammys over dogx jrs anyday just  my 2 cents worth. :)

cheers reece

hyper, you will have to send me some samples of the zipbait  skinny pop jr hehehehehe,
i wanna get some of these but just never see em when i got $$$$ in my pocket.
I agree dogx jr are over rated, but here in north nsw, when the bream are hitting surface hard they cant resist one. In saying that they do the same with the sammys also. So considering i got 2 dogx jrs and 8 sammys, i know which one i use most :) the sammy.
Dont forget the berkley 3b range, for there price you can throw em anywere and not be scared to lose em at $12-$14 each. I have lost quite a few hehehe but they work just as good as most others

Only $2 more than Sammy's Online for the Skinny Pop Jr, Fakie Dog DS same price as the Sammy not too bad for Japanese made lures that can be fished out of the box both fitted with Owner ST-36 trebles.

hi driftcorp, ive used these abit lately aswell mate they look great in the water and the bream love them. what type of retrieve do you use cause i mostly get smashed as soon as they hit the water :) but only get a few swirls on the retrieve :( i dont think im giving a long enough pause?
