Swivel On A whopper Plopper?

Featured Replies

Never fear the size of the 130.  I've gotten several medium sized bass on it.  I bought mine so I could "cross fish" for bass and muskie in my local lake.

I've not tried it (switched to braid outfit when using "the plopper") but If I WAS confined to just mono, I'd use a swivel.  It DID cause line twist with my mono.

There are no pike to speak of around here.

I expected there to be pike because they are always with musky my bad?

They have stocked muskies pretty aggressively in this lake but I don't think it could sustain pike.  Sorry that this is not on the topic.

I have purchased several Whopper Ploppers, mainly the larger ones but hadn't had real success until recently. Ironically I found a Whopper Plopper that someone lost in some brush.  I was able to retrieve it and surprisingly it's been the most productive lure I have owned for topwater.  Not sure if it's the size, the color (Blue Blood) or what the fish just eat this thing up.  I caught 16 largemouth bass on it in about a 4 hour span including this double catch using this lure...so I just placed an order for several versions of the 90 including a couple of the Blue Blood

That's awesome!

 

 

75 is my favorite followed by the 110.

Don't recall where I read this on this site, but does this help that it keeps the WP from spinning while reeled in?

 

Any idea if this will help with the 90 from submerging?

i use the Berkley Choppo in 90 size , and i don’t have as much of an issue... i use the Whopper in anything larger than 90. It helps
