Our foam version of the Sneaky Pete lasts much longer and performs much better than a cork Sneaky Pete. This quiet, bullet-headed “slider”-type topwater makes a subtle bubbly “plup,” rather than a loud pop, and creates an enticing bubble trail– exactly what the smallies want in low water or clear water. This is Tim’s go-to topwater fly for late summer river fishing.
Available in two sizes.
Lil’ Pete (NEW): This size is perfect for smaller fish and where the water is extremely clear (where the bigger Pete can be too large). The Lil’ Pete is very quiet, creates just a small bubble stream and its smaller hook and head means any size smallmouth can be hooked. But don’t assume those 17-inch-plus lunkers won’t take this smaller Pete. Big smallies will definitely take it too.
Big Pete: Our original-size Big Pete is the undisputed winner for targeting big fish, and has caught thousands of bronzebacks over 14 inches, including some exceeding 20 inches. It’s also excellent for largemouth during mornings and evenings.

The Holschlag line of foam topwaters are much more durable and last much longer than cork or hair poppers, so they will actually save you money. In fact, some of Tim’s individual foam poppers have caught over 100 smallmouth each before they were “retired.”
- MINIMUM ORDER = 10 FLIES (ANY COMBINATION — TOPWATERS OR SUBSURFACE FLIES)
