If you’re looking to add another topwater bait to your tackle box, but don’t want to buy another frog, Flip In The Bird may be the answer you’re looking for. One of Bassmasters Must Have Baits for 2013, Flip In The Bird is a solid addition to any arsenal.
Up until a couple of years ago the weedless topwater market didn’t feature anything except frogs. Frogs, frogs and more frogs. That wasn’t necessarily a bad thing, but you can only buy so many frogs. Every fisherman knows that bass don’t only eat frogs, so why are the only weedless lures frogs? That all changed when Flip In The Bird hit the market. With knowledge of bass feeding habits and weedless topwater technology, Flip In The Bird was created.
Flip In The Bird is a little under 3 inches long and 5/8 of an ounce. Available in 9 colors ( http://www.flipinthebird.com/buy/ ) it should be easy for anyone to find a color that best represents the birds in their area. As you can see from the photo above, Flip In The Bird has rubber skirts similar to those used on frogs. The only difference here is that these rubber strands are arranged to resemble wings of course. The inventor, Sam Kennedy, advises all buyers the trim the wings and bend out the hooks on their birds for the optimum effect.
As with all topwater lures, the more distressed you can make your bird look the better. Letting the bait sit while twitching it will make for a realistic portrayal of an injured bird. So if you’re looking for a new topwater lure for the upcoming fishing season, give Flip In The Bird a shot.
