Three important actions of a diving popper

Hound popper

 

Diving poppers have thinner faces and a slimmer body structure. The popping face will be angled slightly upward.

This enables the popper to dive freely after the initial pull while still trapping enough air in the face to produce a good thick bubble trail. Because of its thin body and narrower tail, the lure swims in a slashing, side-to-side manner, leaving a zig zag bubble trail that enthrals fisherman.

 

How to use the popper:

Pull and sweep in a downward and sideways direction. Pull, sweep, and pause for a moment. As a result, the popper will trap air, drop, and leave a zigzag bubble trail. Casting, pulling, sweeping, and pausing are all techniques.

  • Sharp sweeps—If you want to create a bloop and a big bubble trial, exert short, sharp, hard sweeps.
  • Slower sweeps—You can present a floating stickbait action with a slower, longer sweep with splashes and wobbles.
  • Medium sweeps—If you want to move the popper just below the surface, keep a medium pace, then it will dive below the surface and will move swinging side to side.
