Quick take

Articulated fly poppers with soft foam heads that create loud pops and imitate wounded baitfish on the surface.

This is a 12-piece kit of articulated popper flies for fly fishing, sized medium. The cupped foam head makes a pop when stripped, and the tail hangs below the body to suggest a wounded baitfish at the surface. It suits topwater outings for panfish, bluegill and bass, and the assortment gives a fly angler several poppers to rotate through.

Best for

  • Topwater fly fishing for bass and panfish
  • Low-light conditions and early morning
  • Aggressive strikes on surface

Skip if

  • You fish subsurface flies
  • You prefer conventional poppers

Strengths

  • Foam head throws loud pops to attract attention
  • Articulated tail mimics wounded baitfish movement
  • Soft foam resists cracking and breaking

Trade-offs

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.
