Its slender glass minnow profile and distinctive walk are derived from a discontinued lure that has been a well-guarded secret for coaxing strikes from selective bass. On the flipside, Heddon engineers have refined the design and implemented finishes and components that make the new Spook Stick perfect, and even anglers who dread seeing the cat let out of the bag will be delighted by ready access to these premium finesse topwater baits.

The Spook Stick’s sleek profile prompts strikes from fish that won’t quite commit to traditional walking baits. The design, when coupled with a heavy tail weight, allow for long casts to reach schools and to stay back from fussy fish. Small metal internal beads create a subtle rattle that engages with every direction change.

The shape, weighting, line tie placement and balance facilitate effortless walking, with long gliding strides that allow an angler to work the bait quickly and call up fish.

The Heddon Spook Stick is 3 1/2 inches long, weighs 1/4 ounce and is equipped with two ultra-sharp No. 6 trebles. It available in six vital forage-imitating colors: Bone, Bluegill Fry, Chrome, Clear, Pro Blue, and Sexy Shad
