rich mc Posted February 21, 2021 Report Share Posted February 21, 2021 just saw another version by googan baits the revolver. unlike the choppo and original plopper it has the revolving fin in the middle with a tail in a manatee shape . just something to look up while we get more snow.

Bart Durham Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Thanks Rich. I love the whopper plopper but man are they expensive, so I'll have to check out this hopefully cheaper alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich mc Posted March 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 got the spring sale paper from bass pro starts march 11. has the double bladed popper reduced to 7.19. has anyone ever tried that one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Trybul Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 I've tried it. Not as effective as the original but it does work. It's a little bigger and I do like it while fishing for essox. It either attracts attention or spooks them depending on the mood of the fish that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich mc Posted April 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2021 been using the revolver lure th last few days. basically the sound isvery close to the plopper. it does have the rattle but does have nice hooks. having the prop in the middle takes away trying to walk the dog retrieve. i like the flatter tail as it does roll as much when itgets hit,more hook ups. makes me wonder if adding some silicone to the tail section of a zara spook willaid in walking it?

Scott Ferguson Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 What did you mean by “the googan squad has a lower pitch”? Do you mean the prop blade has a different pitch? Different sized Whopper Ploppers have different blades. The 110 and the 75 share the same blade and the 90 has a smaller blade than those two.

rich mc Posted August 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 more of a bass sound compared to higher squeakier plopper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy C Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 You can also slightly bend the whopper plopper blades to adjust the sound to your liking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich mc Posted September 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2021 i had to tell my grandson not to mention the revolver [lure] at school . can you imagine the problem if he told his teacher has two revolvers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 I got the 4.5”, 1/2-ounce model in native shad from Rich. First trip using it, I was thoroughly impressed! Zero body roll/line twist (alleviates needing a snap swivel), and has a louder, deeper sound. It doesn’t foul as easily, and the sound stays consistently in tune. Will be a new go-to in my topwater arsenal. Big thanks to Rich for introducing me to this lure! I’m surprised we’re not seeing it talked about more.
