The Heddon Pop'n Image in Threadfin Shad is a 3-inch topwater popper weighing 5/8 ounce, made for bass anglers who want to work the surface. It can be popped in place or walked back and forth in a zigzag retreat. The shad finish suits anglers fishing open water where baitfish are near the top.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
