Scout

The Jem - Scout Top Water Minnow is built for anglers who want a smaller topwater bait that can still cover water, create aggressive strikes, and adapt to different fishing conditions throughout the day.

Designed with a compact ABS body, the Scout delivers a smooth side-to-side walking action when worked slowly, but becomes much more erratic and aggressive when retrieved faster. That versatility gives anglers the ability to fish the lure differently depending on how active the fish are and what conditions they’re facing.

Compared to the Decoy, the Scout has a smaller profile, making it a great option when fish are feeding on smaller bait, pressured from heavy fishing activity, or simply wanting a more subtle topwater presentation.

Even with its compact size, the Scout still has enough surface presence to call fish up and create explosive reaction bites.

BUILT TO COVER WATER

The Scout is built for anglers who like to stay moving, break down water efficiently, and locate active fish without sacrificing control or presentation.

Its compact body and responsive action allow it to:

• Walk easily across the surface
• Stay controlled during slower retrieves
• React aggressively during faster retrieves
• Fish clean in a variety of water conditions

Whether you’re fishing grass lines, open flats, shoreline cover, timber, or structure, the Scout was designed to stay effective in multiple situations.

SLOW AND CONTROLLED

At slower retrieve speeds, the Scout produces:

• Smooth side-to-side walking action
• Natural baitfish movement
• Controlled surface disturbance
• A tighter, more finesse-style presentation
  

Perfect for:

• Calm water
• Clear water conditions
• Pressured fish
• Early morning topwater bites

FAST AND REACTIVE

When worked faster, the Scout changes completely.

The lure becomes:

• More erratic
• Faster moving
• Aggressive across the surface
• Designed to trigger reaction strikes

This retrieve style works especially well when fish are feeding aggressively or when anglers need to force a response from active predators.

DURABLE ABS CONSTRUCTION

The Scout is built from durable ABS material designed to handle hard strikes and repeated use while maintaining consistent balance and action.

Its body shape and weighting were designed to keep the lure responsive and easy to work in different retrieve styles.
