Quick take
The Bone colorway of the Yo-Zuri 3D Inshore Pencil Popper is a floating topwater bait about 5 3/8 inches long. Its flat bottom and horizontal posture let it walk from side to side, and a single-knock rattle in the rear helps it call fish from a distance. The 3D prism finish is painted into the body for inshore striped bass and other saltwater topwater fishing.
