The Headbanger Spitfire 4-1/2" is what you get when you combine the patented Headbanger invention with the best of wakebaits, propbaits, and swimbaits — one outstanding topwater bait that's super effective and a blast to fish for bass, pike, and perch.Why anglers fish the Spitfire 4-1/2" Four baits in one — topwater, wakebait, propbait, and swimbait; change the retrieve to switch Spinning tail prop — throws spray and commotion that calls predators across the flat Transparent Action Lip — creates big wakes and splashing at normal and fast speeds, and a snakelike crawl at the slowest speeds Beginner-friendly, expert-approved — a simple straight retrieve at any speed catches fish; advanced presentations unlock even more Rigged with sticky-sharp VMC 7266 trebles for surface-strike hookups When and how to fish itOn windy days and in dirty water, retrieve at normal to fast speed — the Action Lip creates big wakes and splashing that fish can track. In calm, clear water, slow down: the Spitfire crawls with a subtle snakelike wake that draws wary fish up. Fish it over weed flats, along reed edges, and across points from spring through fall whenever fish are looking up.
