First Look At The New 5″ Lunker Punker

When the 6" inject Lunker Punker from Black Dog came out I took my Zara Spook and other topwater box out of my boat, and now this!

This bait is seriously going to hurt the sales of companies that sell traditionally-sized topwater walking baits. I was lucky enough to get ahold of one of the first eight in existance. I threw it for the first time today and could not believe it. It has about the same side to side distance capability as the 6" version, and due to its size can literally be jumped and hopped out of the water. It will sell for about $17.00 to $18.00.

It will be available sometime early in 2010.

This bait is sure to make a splash among the bass fishing world, I would even venture to say its gonna be one of the best new bass baits of 2010. Link to Black Dog Baits

Pimp Your Punker

After a couple years of fishing the Lunker Punker there are days when I flat out can not put that bait down. Talk about a fish catching machine.

The other thing about the Punker is that I flat out can not leave the things alone. It is one of the the funnest baits to fuck around with and change up in as many ways as you can. I have had conversations with Jeremy Anderson from Black Dog Baits where we are practically rolling on the ground laughing about some of the ways we have modified these baits. I'm not just talking about custom paint jobs here, I like to do off the wall shit.

I fish Delta and Clear Lake a lot and it is amazing what will intrigue a giant largemouth to come up and eat. The way I look at it is the more off the wall a bait is sometimes, the more response you will get from big fish. Anything that lives on, in, or around the water could potentially fall victim, so why not have that victim on the end of your line. Here is a closer look at some pimped out Punkers
