Explosive Topwater Action: The 4" Atomic Toad
The Barracuda Baits 4" Atomic Toad is a high-action soft plastic frog bait built for fishing across grass, lily pads, shallow cover, and other areas where bass are looking upward for an easy meal.
Its kicking legs create surface disturbance and vibration as soon as the bait begins moving. Rig it weedless and fish it across vegetation, through open pockets, around docks, or beneath overhanging cover where aggressive bass often hold.

Buzzing Across Vegetation: Keep the Atomic Toad moving across lily pads, matted grass, and shallow vegetation while allowing the legs to create commotion.

-
Skipping: Use the streamlined body to reach docks, overhanging limbs, and shaded areas where fish may be holding tight to cover.

Stop-and-Go Retrieve: Pause the bait around openings in vegetation or beside cover to give following fish an opportunity to strike.
