Rebel Pop R P70 is the ultimate big bass popper bait. If you find an original, buy it! Don't be surprised by $30-$50 price tag. Don't be concerned with color when buying, even if it has no paint - paint jobs are cheap! You're welcome!
I fish ultra clear New Hampshire lakes and do well with lobinas Rico in golden retriever, bone, and riccis recipe. They are a little more $ but you don't have to switch out trebles they already come with gammys.
The Duo Realis Popper 64 in Neo Pearl is awesome for clear water. I use it on the edges of hydrilla and it works great!
For clear water the Ricos are great. Natural colors and bone. Another option is the discontinued T.D. Popper Zero. This bait is smaller and lighter than a Rico, but it is a great subtle popper. Rico fished fast. TD fished slow.
Been throwing Michaels and Rico's for years both excellent spitting baits. Best blurping action poppers the old Bulldog popper and Spro Hydro Pop both discontinued.
Ricos
I'll be ordering a couple different color ricos. I like the bone, & golden retriever.
What about yellow magic poppers? Thay look good.
Thanks guys.
Yellow magics work great just make sure you change out the trebles they will bend out. I have one yellow magic with no paint left on it and it's still going strongQuote:

I have had good luck with the Don Iovino 'Splash It's' over the years, all I use. I may try out some Megabass this year to see what all the hype is about.
Heddon baby chugger blk white ribs feather on rear hook.
If they have any left, Tackle Warehouse has a special on "blemished" Rico's. 3 for $25. They come without hooks but that's a great deal.
Do any of you guys have or fish the Norman Pro Pop?
Hand sanded and tweaked Pop-R with a feathered rear hook, painted in my special color.
These... 6th Sense Fishing Lures Spit-X, Spit Max and Spit Mass series custom paints by 6th Sense Lures. All have a one knocker rattle.
Does anyone know where you can buy the Norman Pro Pop? I sent an inquiry to the Norman website and never got an answer.
I have settled in on the Yo-Zuri Sashmi poppers. very good look, quality, and excellent action on the pop.
I did also and got the same response= nothing
