Popper
AdvancedFresh & salt
A topwater lure with a concave, scooped face that throws up a splash and audible pop on a sharp rod twitch, imitating a struggling baitfish or insect on the surface. The commotion draws fish from well outside their immediate strike zone.

Technique tips
- Pause several seconds after each pop — the strike often comes during the pause, not the splash itself.
- It shines on calm water at dawn or dusk when the pop and ring carry furthest and surface feeding is most active.
- Vary the rhythm between single sharp pops and quick double-pops — fish that ignore one pattern often react to the other.
