Topwater poppers aren’t the most dynamic lure in the world. In an industry filled with crazy shapes and new concepts, the effectiveness of these classic bass fishing lures often falls by the wayside. But make no mistake about it; they’re still incredibly productive on bass of all sizes.

I’ve been testing the Evergreen One’s Bug Popper since early spring and have caught dozens of quality bass with it. At first glance, it may look like a stereotypical popper, but after my extensive experience with it, I’ve found it to be an extremely dynamic lure.
