popper color

[Bob Thomas]

About 2 years ago, Dad and I were fishing a cloudy day at the Canal. The fish were slamming Black poppers ONLY. I was confused as to why they were hitting the Black during daylight hours. We were just throwing and scouting after a long night of jigging. They would not touch any other color.

Has anyone had success with floating poppers with over-sized mouths?

I was thinking about trying that style more this year as I mainly use yozuri hydro pencils, spooks and Hab's squid poppers for topwater. Just wondering if I should bother. It's tough to leave what's worked for you in the past.

Some examples of the design I'm speaking of would be the new Stetzko popper or a Smack it.

I guess my question is a little off topic but everyone's talking about popper types in addition color and that question came up for me.
