How To Fish:

The Big Fred is a Topwater lure that is tremendously versatile and can be fished in a number of ways.

Always use thick diameter, heavyweight line for topwater fishing to reduce line drag, line sinkage, and improve overall buoyancy. A medium/heavy power musky action rod of at least 6-1/2 feet also promotes better hooksets. After your cast, begin retrieving immediately. Start your retrieve faster initially while simultaneously lifting upwards on your rod tip to lift as much line off the water as possible. Just by cranking the bait Big Fred snakes across the surface leaving a bubble trail. Twitch and pause to walk the dog with a real popping and spitting action. The bait floats sightly in the water tilted in the water. This “Tilt Action” left to right , front to back makes Big Fred the most versatile top water bait ever.
