Oddly, the Pop-R stole the popper show, but was then discontinued, then was later reinstated Roger My step dad swears by the Pop-R and has spares is his favorite colors still in the package in case he loses them. Are they really that much better?!?!?! 1 Quote

Are they really that much better?!?!?! Not anymore. The original Pop-R was the king of 'spitting' poppers. Oddly, enough, the reincarnated Pop-R has a redesigned face that lacks the ability of the original. Today, the Lobina Rio Rico is the king of topwater spitters, but their price is insane.

waymont Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 Original floating Rapala minnow 2 3/4" and 3 1/2", 3 1/2" Rebel minnow, Hula Popper. all lures from when I was a kid that never stopped catching fish. Quote
Nibbles Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 Probably small finesse tubes, rigged weedless "stupid tube" style so I have an easier time jerking & ripping them through milfoil/coontail and so that they glide rather than spiral on the fall. I use custom poured 1/8 oz ballhead tube jigs that use 60 degree line tie EWG hooks and leave the hook texposed. I forget where I got em from - bought like a 50 pack from someone offloading them on this forum 8 - 9 years ago and still have a handful remaining. Wish I remembered which luremaker they got em from! Will be sad once they're all gone. 2 Quote
