The Panic Pencil Popper features a large rear rattle that not only generates a loud rattling sound but also acts as a weight transfer system responsible for the pencil’s extreme long-distance casting attributes even into a stiff wind.Once on the water, the Savage Gear Panic Pencil Popper delivers the enticingly erratic action necessary to pull fish to the surface and aggravate them into striking. In addition to its mesmerizing action, it also boasts a “stepped hull” design that draws air in from the sides to the underside of the plug increasing the generation of bubbles. This innovative design achieves the bubbly visual cue for feeding activity without increasing the drag or causing increased angler fatigue. Built to handle the most demanding and aggressive predatory species, the Savage Gear Panic Pencil Popper is completed with a thru wire construction and equipped with triple split rings and 4X hooks for an infallible topwater experience.Savage GearLengthWeightClassPanic Popper5-3/4"1-3/4ozTopwaterPanic Popper6-1/2"2-3/4ozTopwaterUpgrade Your Treble Hooks!

Field Notes

Use this as a surface lure when fish are feeding on top or busting bait. The pencil/popper style and loud rattle make it a good choice for covering water, calling fish up in wind, chop, or low-light conditions. Work it with sharp pops and pauses to create gurgles, bubbles, and erratic surface commotion.

Pros

  • Long-distance casting with weight-transfer system
  • Loud rattle and bubble trail help draw fish up
  • Thru-wire construction and 4X hooks for durability

Cons

  • Topwater presentation can be less effective in heavy pressure or calm, clear conditions
  • Treble hooks and surface action can be challenging around heavy cover
