Charles Parr –
Used the Zara Puppy on a morning trip to a quiet lake. The walk-the-dog action was immediate and attracted a large bass that took it right off the surface. Great for beginners and experienced anglers alike. Works well in still water with a slow to medium retrieve.
Trevor Terry –
Fished it with a 6-foot rod and found it very responsive. The 1/4 ounce weight is perfect for small to medium-sized fish. It’s a bit more sensitive than the full-size Zara Spook, but still delivers strong action.
Fiona May –
Caught a redfish on a windy day using the Zara Puppy. The retrieve created a lot of surface disturbance and the fish reacted aggressively. It’s a reliable lure for topwater fishing in varied conditions.
