Whopper plopper

[looking45]

This color has worked for me in all conditions, except night, which I don’t fish

You're right about catching fishermen when it comes to the top of topwater baits colors. But like I said on rarer occasions I believe the fish can see the side of the bait. Besides, many times a topwater bait is partially submerged.

 

As far as the silver on the side, some bluegill and other panfish tend to give off a silver hue. And I doubt the bass would think too much of it anyways.

 

 

Those are some beautiful bluegill!

I have bone and bluegill. 0 fish caught and zero confidence. I want to throw it, but just can't convince myself to tie it on again.

Have you tried pausing it and or a twitch - twitch - twitch.

Sometimes this entices a bite over a steady retrieve......so I've found.

I will try that next time I tie it on. Thanks for the tip!

all my best fish this year have been on Choppo 75, 90, or 120. Bone or Black.

Add “Monkey Butt” color and you are covered .

 

 

These are my colors I own, Monkey Butt, Loon (black), and Bone. I use Monkey Butt almost 100% of the time.

 

 

Honestly I'm not sure if color matters as my friends will use one of the other colors while I use Monkey Butt and we all catch fish. 

 

Maybe because it's a reaction bait and the fish don't get a good look at it.

I have a bunch but got the most action from Monkey Butt ( there’s a joke in there somewhere!! )

 

but I haven’t gotten bites on a WP in a while - I rarely throw it anymore 

 

maybe I need to revisit  it

Any color for me as long as it's the 130 size. That size seems to make a distinct sound different than the other sizes I have used and it gets crushed while the others get ignored.

Bone, Loon, and Perch for me. Though i recently got a Choppo thats white with a painted red head, and the smallmouth where i fish love that color. So i guess im going to have to paint the Bone Whopper Plopper that color too.

[Swamp Girl]

Even if bass aren't hitting a Whopper Plopper, I like the sound of them so much that I'll fish them longer than I should.

That’s the way I feel about jitterbugs. Bloop bloop bloop. Fun to see and hear.
