Quick take
A 1 1/2 to 2 in ultralight crankbait painted to resemble a drowning grasshopper, sized for summer and fall topwater fishing.
This 1 1/2 inch Rebel Crickhopper imitates a grasshopper in a Yellow Grasshopper finish, floats, and weighs 3/32 ounce. Twitch it on top like a struggling insect or reel it steadily for trout and bass. It is a small, light option for summer and fall outings with ultralight gear.
Best for
- Bass and panfish feeding on grasshoppers in summer and fall
- Trout in tailraces and reservoirs with steady retrieve
- Low light conditions where natural insect imitations work
Skip if
- You need a lure that dives deep or works subsurface
- Fishing in spring when grasshoppers are not active
Strengths
- Realistic grasshopper design and paint color
- Ultralight sizes work on light spinning or trout rods
- Can be fished as a topwater popper or shallow crankbait
Trade-offs
- Small size limits casting distance into headwinds
- Effective mainly during grasshopper season
- Ultralight hook may not hold large fish well

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.
