Greg J 1.8 lb. Largemouth Bass caught by Greg J on Wednesday July 23, 2008 at 01:37 near Harrisville in Providence County, Rhode Island, United States North America using a 5/8 oz Black Jitterbug a Topwater Bait by Arbogast

The king of night fishing lures. We caught well over a dozen bass last night on the big black jitterbugs. Have to be careful with the itchy trigger finger, though. The shortest distance between two points can usually be drawn from a largemouth's lips to the idiot in the canoe who tried to set the hook too soon. Had a couple of close calls.

A jitterbug with two sets of sharp treble hooks flying at you at 100 miles per hour? That'll wake you up!

It definitely evens the playing field a bit. I snip off each third hook before I use them, but no less scary.

One major benefit of the spinner/buzzbait family: easy removal.
