Description

The Panic Pencil Popper’s large rear rattle not only generates a loud rattling sound but acts as a weight-transfer system that ensures extreme long-distance casting even into stiff winds. The Pencil moves with an enticingly erratic action that pulls fish to the surface and provokes them to strike. Its “stepped-hull” design draws air in along the plug’s sides to its underside, generating bubbles that signal a visual cue of feeding activity without increasing lure’s drag and causing angler fatigue. With thru-wire construction, triple split rings and 4X hooks, this plug is built to handle the most brutal saltwater gamefish species.

Field Notes

Use this surface plug when fish are feeding near the top, especially in windy conditions where long casts matter. The loud rattle, bubble trail, and erratic walk/pencil action make it a good choice for covering water and drawing strikes from aggressive saltwater predators.

Pros

  • Long-distance casting in wind
  • Loud rattle helps call fish up
  • Produces bubbles and surface commotion
  • Thru-wire build and 4X hooks for hard-fighting fish

Cons

  • Best for active fish willing to strike the surface
  • Can be tiring if worked all day in rough water
