    You can order them directly for norman or at least you could a few months ago. I didn't pull the trigger because they had a flat rate shipping of $9.95. Wasn't paying that for a $4.95 bait. The tackle trap has pop r P70's right now and they are only $5.79. I just got 4 from them. I love to fish poppers and the yellow magic is by far my favorite. Ricos and megabass pop max are both great baits. I got my hands on some ken pops that I am waiting to try along with some yamamoto sugoi splash's.

    Berkley Frenzy Popper in the iridescent purple. They come up on Ebay occasionally and go for between $10 to $25 or so. What does a bait that retailed for $4 going for up to $30 now that they are discontinued tell you?

    Unless I am missing something Norman Pro Pops are available on Normans webbsite for $ 4.25 each. Are those the ones you are inquiring about?

    Yes but someone said they had a flat shipping fee of $9.50 if I remember correctly

    Yellow magic was a staple for me on the Mississippi this past year.

    I had a great fall on poppers and threw 2 depending on what kind of cover I was fishing...Pop-R and Strike King KVD Splash popper. The Pop-R has a bit more *glug* and dips a little deeper on the pull..I threw it probably 80% of the time...the only thing I'm not crazy about with it is durability. Those light aluminum hooks don't hold up and if you're having a good day, the feathers are going to get torn off. The SK tends to ride a bit higher in the water and glides a bit higher. I love it over and around grass and submergerd cover. Really well built...the only real drawback that I noticed was that some days they just seemed to prefer the deeper dips and *glug* of the Pop-R.

    I'm hooked on them though...will definitely throw them a lot this year. I'm thinking of ordering a bunch of bodies and putting together my own this winter.
