Baby Torpedo Brown Crawdad

The Heddon Torpedo has been the world's top-selling and top-producing topwater lure for generations. Its aerodynamic shape, balance, and weight allow anglers to cast them like a bullet. When fished with short, erratic twitches, the Torpedo's lures create a wild splashing surface disturbance, making them ideal for targeting schooling fish. The Torpedo is a perfect choice for bass fishing.

The Baby Torpedo, on the other hand, was designed for larger gamefish, such as muskies, northern pike, bluefish, and stripers. Its size and profile make it a popular choice for these larger predators.

The Torpedo's enduring popularity can be attributed to its exceptional performance and versatility. Anglers have relied on its reliable action and ability to trigger aggressive strikes from a wide range of fish species. The lure's ability to mimic the movements and disturbances of injured or fleeing baitfish has made it a go-to choice for anglers seeking topwater excitement.

One of the key features of the Torpedo is its balance and weight, which allow for long, accurate casts. This is particularly important when fishing for wary, skittish bass that may be holding in open water or near structure. The lure's aerodynamic shape cuts through the air, enabling anglers to reach their target areas with ease.

The Torpedo's surface disturbance is another factor that contributes to its success. The lure's splashing and churning action creates a commotion that can draw the attention of nearby fish, triggering their predatory instincts. This is especially effective when targeting schooling fish, as the Torpedo's ability to mimic the movements of a baitfish can cause the school to erupt in a feeding frenzy.

For anglers targeting larger gamefish, the Baby Torpedo offers a similar level of performance and versatility, but in a size more suitable for their quarry. The larger profile and increased mass of the Baby Torpedo allow it to be presented effectively to muskies, northern pike, bluefish, and stripers, which often require a more substantial lure to trigger a strike.

Whether anglers are targeting bass, muskies, or any other species, the Heddon Torpedo and its Baby Torpedo counterpart have proven to be reliable and effective topwater lures. Their enduring popularity is a testament to their ability to consistently produce results for anglers of all skill levels and experience.
