Rapala Skitter Pop

The Pro's:
The Rapala Skitter Pop is slightly different then other top water poppers I have used. when jerked through the water the cupped plastic lip lets out loud pops and the lure dives in the water a little bit (maybe 2inches max). I have launched this lure into a school of crappies and they went nuts over this. I can just imagine when the bass are hitting top water really hard what this lure will do. The one pictured is the color lime frog but I have been using shad color in stained water with good results. Its a very good long caster and comes with two sets of treble hooks as shown in the picture. This lure could be the lure to use this summer on hot July and august nights when the bass are feeding near the top.


The Con's:
The balsa wood body gets damaged easy when miss-cast and hits a hard object as does the plastic lip. Once you break the plastic lip the lure does not work right.


Is It a good Buy?
I am starting to like these lures more and more. The Rapala Skitter Pop offers a change when fishing top water. I prefer to have a Storm Rattlin' Chug Bug and a Rapala Skitter Pop for variety in action, movement and sound.
