Any of you ever use river2sea's whopper plopper ?  Bought one today and don't know anything about them.

There's a thread about this like a page or 2 back.

I started throwing one about 2 years ago.  There were only two sizes at that time and I bought the 130.  Amazing lure.  Only complaint I have is based on a BIG fish that actually pulled a hook out of the lure.  It is possible that I had earlier bounced it off a rock and cracked it.  I like to cast very close to rocks.

 

I do not care for the new smaller model.  If you cast it way out there in choppy water it will submerge.  I have a buddy that uses the Muskie size for bass, with much success!  BTW, it excells with wind on the water.

Cast it out and reel it in, pretty much like a buzzbait. You can rip it or do stop and go retrieves also, but the straight retrieve has been best for me. 

I'v had marginal success with it. I believe I have caught one smallie on it.

I fish it a lot.. Pretty much with a steady retrieve, The advantage it has over a buzzbait is that when one takes a swat at it you can just kill it without it sinking..

 And the fact that you can cast the thing a country mile.
