Description

Surface popper. RUC popper is one of the easiest popper I have ever used. Big splash with short sweeps. Longer sweeps will have an initial splash followed by bubble trail. This is a fun little popper to use, after using heavier poppers.

Lure is covered by resin epoxy at all anchor points. Hardware recommendation: 1/0 or 2/0 (BKK) trebles at the belly and tail. Split rings #5 or #6(BKK). Hardware are only recommendations, user may use any hardware to accommodate water conditions. *40g lures have a slight variance of -/+ 10% in weight.

Field Notes

Use this surface popper on calm to moderately choppy water where you can create short, repeated sweeps to trigger splashes and a bubble trail. Work it with short rod sweeps for big splash, or longer sweeps to start with a splash and then follow with bubbles.

Pros

  • Surface popper with easy, consistent popping action
  • Solid wood construction
  • 40g size makes it effective after heavier poppers

Cons

  • Requires proper hardware sizing (belly/tail trebles and split rings) for best results
