Quick take
Three 1/4 oz topwater poppers that chug and pop when worked across the surface.
The Triple Threat is a pack of three 2 1/2 inch, 1/4 ounce Rebel Pop-R topwater poppers in the Foxy Momma, Foxy Shad and Foxy Lady patterns. It gives a bass angler three color options in one purchase for working the surface, each with a #6 hook.
Best for
- Bass feeding on the surface at dawn and dusk
- Panfish in shallow water
- Tournament and recreational bass fishing
Skip if
- You fish heavy wind; they are light and hard to cast far
- You need a lure that sinks; these stay on top
Strengths
- Cupped face creates a loud pop and spray to draw strikes
- Three color patterns offer choices for different water clarity
- Proven design has won bass tournaments
Trade-offs
- The lightweight design makes them difficult to cast in strong wind
- Topwater lures require active retrieves and do not work when fish are inactive
- The open hook and treble design can foul on vegetation

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.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
