Can You Id This Lure?

It's a Matzuo, Okoru Shad Popper. Not currently available in their catalog. It's funny, I just posted earlier today that I have some of those and they've been my number one topwater for smallmouth. I have 3 of them left and none of them have much paint left on them.

It's my best popper and one of my most cherished lures. I only have the one left. I googled your answer but when I got the lure it came with feathers. Thats the only thing didn't match the picture

It looks like some of the lure bodies that they sell on barlows, netcraft, hagens, and then you buy your own trebles, feathered etc...

 

That does look like a Matzuo, or an Owner, Strike Pro model.....The color looks like the older Owner's back when they had the zip n ziggy, but Bass Pro has a house brand that has a similar shape when it comes to the mouth....If it is your top producer I would look for  one that has a similar sound and size, you can always modify the hooks etc...

 

Good luck, companies like Hurricane, Tsunami, and other's are always making lures then discontinuing them a year later, or it could be an OEM import sold on ebay...I have been seeing a lot of poppers in lots of 6-8 for a buck each that look similar to many versions today.

Google Matzuo Nano Popper....It looks identical.

It does, but it doesn't have the ridges in the body style that my lure has.

I did some searching and found some with and some without feathers. Possible they went one direction or another and you just got the batch with feathers. Even if they don't offer the dressed tail treble anymore it isn't like it's hard to buy a dressed treble and swap them out.
