Our verdict

A small topwater lure with a treble hook and a shad finish. The listing gives two different weights, so confirm which one belongs to the lure itself.

Overview

A treble hook is the listed hook style on this River2Sea topwater lure, an artificial bait in the Phantom Shad finish. It is aimed at crappie, trout and panfish, and the listing describes the hook material as high carbon steel.

A topwater bait suits anglers who like surface strikes on lighter species, and the finish is a natural baitfish look. The listing is thin: it names no action, no lip or blade detail and gives two weight figures that do not agree. Expect to judge the swim from the lure in hand, not from the page.

Who it's for

A small-water angler who wants a single surface lure in a shad finish for panfish and trout. It adds one bait to a box and does not replace a full lure kit. Anglers wanting a sinking bait, a multi-pack or documented swimming action should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Shad finish for baitfish imitation
  • Treble hook for better hookup odds
  • Targets crappie, trout and panfish
  • Single lure, easy to add
Cons
  • Listed weights do not agree
  • Swimming action not described
  • Single color only

Performance notes

A treble hook gives several points to catch a short strike, which matters with small mouthed fish. Surface baits work through noise and ripple on top of the water, so the body shape and any lip decide the action, and the listing does not describe either.
