Fun little lure,August 25, 2009
By tallmoonfrom Danbury, WI
"When the water is dead calm regardless if I am catching bass or not I just have to throw this lure. It's so much fun to watch a strike and land a Bass or a Northern Pike. I have never put it back in the tackle box with out catching at least one fish. I must say its my most reliable hard bait. I have many hard lures that have never helped me boat a fish ever. I am a plastics guy, but I do like my Jitterbug. I use the white bottom frog colors on top."

Old Goodie,October 15, 2008
By Ediefrom Maine
"This thing is Awsome! I love fishing it, it is so good! I have one that is old and it caught fish when nothing else did. The new ones are just as good. The red and white color works good, and the black works well at night. But see what works for you."

Not Always Just A Night Lure,July 14, 2008
By arbofanfrom St Paul, MN
"I recently had loads of fun catching (and releasing) largemouth on a small yellow jitterbug at mid-day in late June. It was mostly overcast and calm, with storms on the way. The bass were barely interested in a bass popper thrown with a fly rod, but a gentle retrieve of the jitterbug drove them wild."

The best lure,June 12, 2008
By TJR9from Springfield Ohio
"I mostly use this lure in michigan. It is the best topwater plug i have ever used! It makes this popping nose that bass and other fish can't resist! This lure is best used when ur fishing at night. The reason that being is because when u fish at night the lake is so quite that the fish can hear the plug from a long ways away. So if you are looking for a good nightime lure the jitterbug is the best of all others!!!"

Ol' Reliable,March 18, 2008
By Hoopsterfrom NW PA
"Just go out after the sun goes down, flip out the Jitterbug, wait till the circles clear and everything is calm, retrieve just fast enough to get the plop, plot, plop sound - and see what happens. Or, go out in the morning - early when the mist is still rising..........."

Jitterbugs Downunder,January 7, 2008
By Anglin1from Mount Riverview Blue Mountains AUSTRALIA
"These lures from the tiny1/8oz to the Big "Musky" size 41/4" bruisers would have to be the best alround surface lure ever made, no wonder Arbogast has been around for so many years. these lures may have their equal now when your fishing during daylight hours but once the sun has gone off the water & right through the night there is not another lure that promotes the strikes from Bass, Cod, Golden Perch & Silver perch that these lures do."

Jitterbug for Bass,January 6, 2008
By CDR3from Blaine, WA
"I have used the Jitterbug to catch bass for (45) years. I still have the original black, bolsa wood, Jitterbug that I bought (45) years ago. It is all covered with scatches from largemouth and smallmouth bass strikes but it still produces strikes. No bass fisherman should be without at least one black and a couple other color Jitterbugs for bass fishing."

look at the first picture,July 26, 2007
By riflerofrom MN
"The lure I got was like the first picture not like the second one. I think if it was like the second one it would catch some fish but this one is piece of junk. It does not do anything like what the write up says. Get a different top water lure."

topwater hero,July 3, 2007
By TopwaterFanfrom Massachusetts
"The jitterbug is the best topwater lure for largemouth bass ever invented, especially for fishing at dusk or in the dark. It is easy to fish, and fun to watch retruning to you in front of a wake of bubbles. It elicits great topwater strikes, and is able to hook a great percentage of hits. If a bass misses a strike, let it sit perfectly still for 1-2 minutes, and get ready. Try adding pauses to your retrieves, and vary the speed until you find what works best. I have also caught smallmouth, bluegill, and a 40 inch Pike on this lure. I like black at night, and frog colored (green/ yellow) at dusk."

great topwater lure,July 2, 2007
By wilemfrom Weare, New Hampshire
"a friend of mine let me borrow the largest jitterbug in black. I had pretty good luck with it. I figured I would try the smallest one they make and see how that worked, also changed the color to bass. Unreal! I catch everything on it. Any time of day I get hits. My favorite lure by far."

No box is complete without one,May 29, 2007
By krabobfrom Michigan
"This is the lure that I caught my first largemouth with and I've been hooked ever since. Couldn't imagine a topwater fishing outing without my "bugs". This is my go to whenever fishing is slow, and it comes through time and again. Match the colors to water clarity and the lure will do the work. Only drawback is sometimes the spoon can interfere with setting the hook. Regardless, I caught a 7 pounder on a jitterbug last fall."

The Incomparable Jitterbug/,May 10, 2007
By Erwoodfrom Lagu;na Hills, CA
"I have been using the Arbogast Jitterbug since I was about 10 years old. Long ago, my Father gave me the 1/2 once Frog-back with the white belly and it instantly become my favorite top water bait.
This year I have taken all the bass I have caught to this point on the 3/8 once Yellow Jitterbug. There is nothing that comes close to the creativity of this product."
