As water temperatures start to drop and baitfish migrate into the creeks, the fall topwater bite comes alive. And when it does, Lucky Craft’s KJ Prop—designed with pro angler Kelly Jordon—is one of the most lethal tools you can throw.
Built around a bream-style profile that perfectly mimics the forage bass gorge on this time of year, the KJ Prop blends sound, flash, and realism into one fall-feeding frenzy trigger.
Why It Works in the Fall
In autumn, bass chase schools of baitfish as they push shallow, often ambushing them along bluff ends, creek channels, and submerged vegetation. The KJ Prop’s deep profile and baitfish-like shape deliver an incredibly realistic presentation that mirrors bluegill and shad, two of the most important fall meals in a bass’s diet.
According to Jordon, “The KJ Prop gives off the perfect flash and flick like a wounded baitfish. In the fall, that’s the exact kind of commotion that big bass key in on.”
Dual Prop Commotion
Equipped with a prop on the front and back, the KJ Prop throws off a distinct flicking and splashing noise that’s impossible for bass to ignore. The unique sound and surface disturbance make it ideal for covering water and triggering reaction bites from schooling fish.
Whether you’re walking it through open water or burning it across points where shad are active, the KJ Prop’s dual-prop system simulates panic—drawing strikes from fish that might otherwise just follow.
Fall Features That Make It Deadly
-
Bream and shad imitation for fall forage matching
-
Deep, realistic profile that mimics full-bodied baitfish
-
Front and rear props for an aggressive flicking sound
-
Hand-tied feather treble for added flash and life on pause
-
Perfect for covering water along creek channels, flats, and docks
When and Where to Throw It
During fall, the KJ Prop shines in low-light mornings, overcast days, and wind-blown banks conditions when baitfish are active near the surface. It’s especially effective over shallow grass, riprap, or around bait balls pinned to the surface by feeding bass.
Use steady retrieves with subtle pauses when fish are schooling, or burn it fast when they’re aggressively feeding. Either way, the sound and silhouette do the work.
Final Thoughts
Fall is the season of opportunity, and the Lucky Craft KJ Prop is built to take full advantage of it. Designed by Kelly Jordon and crafted by Lucky Craft, it’s a topwater lure that combines realism, noise, and motion, turning those fleeting fall feeding windows into fireworks on the surface.
