Quick take
A 3-inch topwater bait with a plopping tail that creates surface commotion and sound to trigger aggressive strikes.
The Whopper Plopper 60 is a topwater plopper for anglers who want a surface bait that makes noise on the retrieve. Its rotating tail churns the water as it moves, so a slow retrieve gives gentle surface disturbance while a fast, hard one makes a louder splash. The Monkey Butt color comes pre-rigged with size 8 black nickel trebles and weighs about a quarter ounce.
Best for
- Early morning and evening topwater sessions
- Rolling, buzzing, twitching, or burning the lure for maximum noise
- Bass and pike in shallow to moderate cover
Skip if
- You need a quiet topwater for selective fish
- You target smallmouth bass in clear water
Strengths
- Plopping tail creates unique gurgling action and sound
- Pre-rigged with strong size 8 treble hooks

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.
