I've used a lot of top water baits but my favorite is the super spook jr. in the bone color or the white with a red head. To improve my hook up ratio I replace the hooks on the spook with #2 gamakatsu hooks.

Well for walk the dog style baits I love the Heddon Spook Jr. in Mullet color, and for popers I like the Rebel Pop R 7 in black and white.

red/white pop-r. I used to be a zara spook guy but I'll fish the pop-r and will catch morefish than someone on my boat throwing a zara spook. In my opinion thepop-r is more versatile.
