Quick take
A saltwater popper with weighted body and rattle for long-distance casting at striped bass and offshore species.
This pink popper runs 5.9 inches and floats, so it sits on the surface between pops when worked over calm, shallow water. Anglers targeting striped bass from the surf or inshore flats will find it a compact topwater choice, and it also suits tuna and dorado fishing.
Best for
- Striped bass in surf and inshore waters
- Casting to breaking schools of tuna and dorado
- Saltwater shore fishing
Skip if
- You need finesse presentations; use smaller lures
- You fish in fresh water or shallow ponds
Strengths
- Perfectly weighted for distance casting in salt water
- 3D eyes and elliptic mouth design attracts aggressive fish
- 3X Japanese Sugiura treble hooks handle large inshore and offshore species
Trade-offs
