 What
are fly
fishing poppers?
They are artificial lures that imitate the way that bugs float
on the surface of the water. Fly fishing poppers are designed to
move across the surface of the water while you are retrieving or
trolling. As they move across, they create a lot of water surface
distortion, and they attract predator fish.
You can either use them in a steady and quick retrieve, or you
can jerk them around a bit, making the splash in one place for a
little while. Fly fishing poppers are topwater lures. Fish will
come from far and wide to go for these lures.
What do fly fishing poppers usually look like?
Generally, fly fishing poppers look a bit like a wooden handle
with a place for hooks. The front of a popper is angled, flat, or
a little concave. This shape will create a spray of water behind
the popper as you retrieve it.
What kind of fish can you catch by using fly fishing poppers?
Generally, when you are using poppers, you are fishing for kingfish
or bass… you use them to catch large species.
