Wakebaits cover water quickly and have a deadly, lifelike action that mimics wounded baitfish. They’re perfect for “run and gun” missions when locating shallow, active bass. Walker Smith provides the ins and outs of where, when and how to fish one. From the retrieve to factors such as size and color selection for bigger bites.
