Topwater Bass Fishing While the Carp Are Going CRAZY!
I’m out on the bank throwing a topwater popper for Largemouth Bass while Carp are splashing like crazy during their spawn. Despite the chaos, I stayed focused and landed two solid Bass—one around three pounds, the other closer to two. Fishing from the bank in the morning, the topwater action was electric—nothing beats the rush of a Bass smashing a lure on the surface. June’s perfect for this kind of bank fishing, and the Carp didn’t stop the bites.The popper’s splash and pop drew those Bass out, even with Carp making a racket. It’s a thrill every bank angler should try, especially in early summer when fish are active in shallow water. No fancy gear needed—just a rod, a popper, and some patience. Ever fished topwater with fish spawning all around? What’s your favorite topwater lure?
Topwater Results:
- Popper: Two Largemouth Bass (three pounds and two pounds).
- Morning Session: Prime time for topwater action.
- Bank Spots: Shallow areas worked despite Carp chaos.

June’s the prime time for topwater Bass fishing, and I’m on the bank proving it with a topwater popper.

This lure’s easy for beginners to start with but takes practice to master. If you’re fishing from the bank, now’s the time to throw topwater and feel that explosive strike.The popper’s action was key, drawing Bass in when other lures failed. Working it slow and steady from the bank got the job done, especially in shallow spots. Early summer’s perfect for this, and you don’t need expensive gear to make it happen. When’s the last time you went topwater? What’s your trick for mastering the pop?
