I don't get a lot of bites, but the ones I get are the right ones and they are explosive.

I had an excellent hour with the bigger bone colored plopper in a light rain catching 3-5lb fish.
They were killing it. Made the mistake of grabbing one of the bigger fish and it shook and stuck the hook through my palm.
Got the braid out and removed it but man that's a big hook. The bite was over by the time I got it out.

I have had a lot of success with the Double plopper (aka the Starship Enterprise). Its a little hard to get set up just right due to the plopper arms being bendable, but I caught a 7 pounder last year with it. The best part is that it is basically weedless!!

I've fished that thing all over and have caught 1 smallmouth on it. Tons of blowups and swirls but I just cant get them hooked with it.

Got a few dinks, but nothing to brag about. I have the same one at the top of the thread. I think Im going to paint it bone, since I hear the same from alot of different anglers.

I can get 2 Whoppers at Burger King for the price of one of those and get better results. My Pop R's and Zara Spooks still work just fine.

I'll take any that anybody wants to give away. I might even trade a yellow magic or two I don't throw.

I like em. Hood up ratio >90%. First pic is the 90 size. Second is 130. But I like the 110 the best.

I think the 110 will be the bait , I have 5 90m ,and 3 130m , they all catch fish , not worth the money imo , 90 is kinda small , 130 is way too big , I'll be interested too throw the 110 . It is one hell of a striper bait tho , throw one at Texoma , and hang on .

I love this bait. My favorite color is Bone and Lune! I have had a ton of success with this bait this year. I like the yellow magic too but I like this bait better. It seems to catch bigger fish more often. My favorite thing about the WP is that you can use it successfully in chop with a windy day where the poppers seem to be not as effective. Just my opinion.

Don't underestimate what a Pop-R can do when ripped across the surface in a chop.

Agreed. The 90 seems too small and the 130 seems HUGE. I've caught a few on each. I like my yellow magic better. When my arms gets tired from it, I sometimes switch to the WP.

Yep, especially the big one. The old Jitter bug still works great too.
