The Poppers
The popper is a hard lure that does not have a bib, which allows it to stay on the surface of the water throughout its action.
Its beveled or curved face, depending on the model, will emit a spray of water when the lure is towed, a sound often in the tone of a "Pop" (hence the name) will result.
The Pop is created thanks to the air bubbles trapped under water, due to the particular face of the Popper, once these bubbles are released they burst.
It is a wise choice for tracking aggressive predators or predators for whom mealtime has sounded.
