Kingdom Ghosting Topwater Popper Hard Bait for Bass
The Kingdom Ghosting is a concave-face popper built to spit and gurgle across the surface, drawing reaction strikes from bass keyed in on shad or baitfish. The cupped mouth throws a sharp splash on the pause and chugs loudly on a sharp rod snap, while the through-wire construction and dual treble hooks hold up against solid blowups.
It shines around docks, weed edges, and shallow flats during low light or calm water when bass are looking up. Work it with short pops and pauses for a walk-the-dog cadence, or rip it faster to imitate a fleeing baitfish. Available in three sizes to match calm mornings or windier, louder conditions.

How to fish it
- Cast past cover such as docks, weed edges, or laydowns and let the popper sit until rings disappear.
- Snap the rod tip down sharply to make the cupped face spit water, then pause 1-2 seconds before the next pop.
- Vary retrieve speed and pause length until bass show a preference, especially during low-light hours.
- Switch to a faster walk-the-dog cadence when bass are actively chasing baitfish on the surface.
Frequently asked
The 110mm size is a solid all-around choice for largemouth, offering enough splash to draw attention without spooking wary fish in clear water.
Yes. Use natural shad or silver patterns in clear water and darker or more contrasted colors in stained water so bass can locate the bait more easily.
A medium to medium-heavy rod with 12-17 lb monofilament or braid to fluorocarbon leader gives good hookset power and keeps the bait riding high on the surface.
Early morning, evening, and overcast days are prime since bass are more willing to come up and chase surface baits in low light.
