Perodis Posted June 21, 2021 Posted June 21, 2021 Evergreen OB-68 Popper. They're JDM so a bit pricey but the fish love em. Quote
jtharris3 Posted June 21, 2021 Posted June 21, 2021 A lot of good suggestions already mentioned. A new lire for me this year is the Berkley Bullet Pop in the 70 and 80 size. It’s producing very well for me thus far. Quote
JZpowered Posted June 27, 2021 Posted June 27, 2021 I've been having the most topwater success here Early Morning with Walking Baits and Rest of the day/evening with Frogs/Poppers. I'm sure they would work reverse too I just tend to fish each most at those times. Favorite walking baits are the Super Spook(rounded face, wider walking action) and River2Sea Rover 128(cupped face, tighter walking action), Favorite Popper is the Rebel Magnum Pop-R(balanced, bigger profile, heavy enough to throw on a baitcaster, super cheap - gives me lots of confidence to stock up on replacements throw tight to cover where bass are holding), Favorite frogs are the Spro Bronzeye for thick pads/slop mats and the Poppin Spro for anywhere else. Put some time into learning to walk a popper and find the rod you feel most accurate casting it on(Some guys prefer a spinning over a baitcaster for this) and you will be amazed how many options you have fishing a popper. Since you're in Florida I'd definitely upgrade the trebles. Quote
