Blackwater's Signature™ Lure
Topwater Charlie ... A truly big-bass bait! Designed to create a lot of noise on the surface, don't hesitate to fish the lure in deep water and heavy cover. Topwater Charlie can be worked fast or slow, you can buzz it across the surface like a buzz bait or rip it, jerk it, stop it or simply move it very slowly across the water and the blades will still work, making this one of your most versatile lures.

Joe's Special ... It pops, spits, sputters, skidders and splashes ... and catches all kinds of light-tackle game fish! Every fisherman needs a popper in their tackle box.  Joe's Special can be fished just about any way you want. There simply is no wrong way to fish a popper. Give Joe's Special a try and you won't be disappointed!

L'il Pete ... Smaller than the Topwater Charlie, L'il Pete stands out with its big-fish-catching action. The smaller blade  moves less water, but L'il Pete makes plenty of noise to draw strikes even when fish are less active during the middle of the day. Cast it on target, then move it slowly, pulling it with short jerks and stopping it from time to time. But don’t think you have to fish L'il Pete slow all the time -- ripping it can bring explosive strikes too!

River Ripper ... A great light-tackle lure with propellers on each end. We designed this one to fish the blackwater rivers and creeks of the South. Cast this slim guy against the bank, give it a couple of short twitches and hold on! River bass can’t stay away from it! It's also been deadly on smallmouth bass of the Tennessee River Valley for years. No matter where you fish, River Ripper is the perfect topwater lure for fishing on light lines.
