Excited to try this big popper

[Swamp Girl]

I'm excited to try this big popper for lmbs. I have good luck with big lures and most of my poppers don't qualify as big. Has anyone else used it?

It works but I still haven’t found any popper better than the rebel pop-r

Yikes!

I personally really like the big walking poppers.  Haven't tried that one yet but only had good experiences with R2S hard baits.

I've got a good feeling about this one, Pat.

It's a white topwater so it's gonna get bit! ???

 

Bass like any color topwater as long as it's white.

 I just discovered the Popmax and have caught a ton of bass on it already !!

 

it pops / spits / walks - and had way better luck with it than the Pop-R or Rico 

 

even a 15lb carp hit the Popmax !!

I picked up a Bass Pro Shops, Offshore Angler 1 1/4oz popper. It casts far, just haven't caught a bass on it yet, I've only used it for a few hours the other day.

I’ve used it before. Seemed ok. The thin edges on the protruding head cup easily broke when hitting harder objects. I wanted something similar and switched over to the storm chug bug which worked out well.

Hmm. Well, I'll see tomorrow, when I'll be using it. I expect it to work well, but only time will tell.

Good luck with it! It’s probably a decent bait but where I fish I sometimes bump into rocks (low water levels and so forth). Or pulling it up from a bank. The whole face kinda chipped away around the thin cup edges, which made me look for something a bit more robust.

@ol'crickety be sure to give an update.
