Field Notes

This is a surface popper designed to work on top of the water with chugging and popping retrieves. It is best around low-light periods, calm to lightly rippled water, and over open water or near cover where bass are feeding on the surface.

Pros

  • Surface commotion can draw reaction strikes
  • Compact 2 7/8" profile is easy to cast and work
  • Premium treble and dressed treble add hookup appeal

Cons

  • Can be less effective in heavy wind or rough water
  • Surface baits often require active retrieve and attention
