product description

Whopper Plopper 90 /130 is the little brother of our larger versions; but don't let its little package fool you, this bait has a serious little man's complex. Built with the same durable construction as the rest of the line with Xtra Strong components including hook hangers, wires, and X-Strong size 4 treble hooks. This smaller version is made tough to battle bigger foes.

While his big brothers rely on powerful chops of their tail to attract strikes, the Whopper Plopper 90 relies more on quickness, with a unique sound more reminiscent of a buzz saw, Whopper Plopper 90 is tailor made for topwater fishing in high pressure situations and when the forage base is smaller.

Questions about River2Sea Whopper Plopper 130

when you buy it, does it come with the treble hooks?

Answer: Yes, 2 very sharp, very strong hooks.

Answer: Yes it does

Answer: Yes they do very sharp too

Answer: yes

What color works the best for largemouth bass?

Answer: Can't go wrong with black or bone. I've caught bass on all the colors. My favorite top water bait. Definitely buy at least one. Good luck, tight lines!

Answer: It depends. I normally use yellowhead on overcast days and powder any other time. I use the perch color for lakes that conain a good number of perch. I would say powder and yellowhead would be good starting colors.

Answer: Black with white specks and natural bait colors

Answer: I use the Chubby, worked great for me in the shallows during late Spring and Summer. I want the Black Loon with Chartruse

Answer: I Know it and loon. I use some of the crazy saltwater colors to mix it up after I change out the hooks

Answer: Bone

Is it just 1 lure that comes?

Answer: yes, one big lure (130)

Answer: Yes

Answer: Yes it is

Answer: Yes.

Is this good for saltwater

Answer: I would think some of the colors are working fine for salt water, as I am selling them to several states that border on the ocean. Thank you for your question

Answer: No

Answer: Yes for both

Are these rigged with 2/0 hooks?

Answer: yes

what three sizes does the whopper plopped come in ?

Answer: The Whopper Plopper comes in 4 sizes currently - the 90, 110, 130 and 190. There are also silent versions of the Whopper Ploppers.

Answer: It actually comes in 4 sizes. The smallest is the 90 (3.5 inches), then the 110 (4 3/8 inches), then the 130 (5 inches) then the 190 (7.5 inches) which is more for musky. Hope this helps!

Answer: It comes in 90, 110, 130 and not sure, it maybe available in a 190 size also. Hope this helps. Thanks!

Answer: We stock sizes 90, 110, and 130

Answer: It’s comes in four actually , a 90, 110, 130 and a 190

Answer: sizes 90, 130 and 190. The 130's are 5 inches long and the weight is 1 3/8 ounces and the 190's are a bit larger. The 130's are GREAT for bass and I have a few 190's for Tiger muskies.

Answer: I prefer the 3 1/2 in size. Larger sizes are only salt water.

What is the length of this?

Answer: 6.25”

Answer: 5”

does anyone know what brand treble hook they use on the 130 whopper plopper

Answer: River2Sea make their own hooks for the Whopper Plopper

Answer: Not sure but they are strong, sharp and catch fish. Good product.

Does this come with the "updated" hooks (star decal on box stating better hooks) or is this the first version?

Answer: My stock have the new hooks.

Answer: I’m not sure which version of hooks the one I purchased has but the lure catches fish like crazy. Best lure I ever purchased on line for catching fish regardless of hook version.

Answer: The ones I order did and what a difference they made...

Whay size hook should i get for it?

Does this bait have rattles in it? ....i don't want the slient one

Answer: The 130 Loon color does have a rattle

Answer: No rattles in it, but it doesn't need any. This thing makes a huge commotion for top water and is a fish catching machine. Highly recommend buying multiple!

Answer: No . Due to the design it doesn't need rattles.

Answer: no dont need it .... its very load coming across the water

What is a good color for rock fish

Answer: It’s more of a reaction strike so color isn’t necessarily a matter unless it has to do with visibility. The size however does matter as I see more blow ups on the 90 size vs my 130 sizes.

Does this come with the upgraded hooks (has decal on box saying better hooks) or is this the first version?

Answer: Hooks are awesome don't need no upgrade.

Does this come in red

Answer: There is a craw color

What retrieval method should you use?

Answer: I try two different types. Steady retrieve or pause 5 seconds then retrieve,pause etc. both are effective.

Answer: I use a slow retrieve and alternate between steady and stopping. Most of my hits occurr when the lure hits the water, so I give it a couple seconds to sit before I start the retrieve.

Answer: Several retrial methods can be used. After casting the lure floats. After letting the water settle: direct retrieve (judge the retrieval speed by sound-you'll hear it like buzz baits-they have a sweet spot. Second method I use is a retrieve / pause. Many bass will hit just as it starts up again. Lastly, you can start retrieve with a pop in between (I don't like this as much as my brother..and yes he catches more than I..occationally. Have fun GREAT BAIT.

Answer: You can just straight retrieve it. You can do stop and go. Twitch it. Use your imagination. The only thing you can't do is walk the dog like a zara spook.

Answer: You can straight retrieve or change speeds while retrieving

Answer: When it hits the water, let it sit for a few moments. I have had a number of hits a second or two after it touches the water. I will then slowly reel across the top. You can stop every so often. As the same with any lure, you will find what works and is most comfortable for you. Best of luck

Answer: Depends what the fish are wanting, burn it fast, run it slow reel and pause ect.

Do you have 190 in monkey butt

Answer: NO I have bone, perch, loon, bee gee, and red horse in 190

Does this come with hooks on it and its made for bass right

Answer: Yes this does come with treble hooks. This is the best topwater bait for both largemouth and smallmouth bass.

Answer: Yes, very good hooks I might add, Mustad. It is produced for bass. This brand and especially the whopper plopper is my go too lure, always produces, normally sizeable to trophy bass. Also check out the double plopper. Good luck.

Answer: my had hooks yes it for bass

Answer: Yes it has hooks. It's an excellent big bass lure.

Product reviews of River2Sea Whopper Plopper 130

me : Great

Great

David R. : Catches Fish!

Caught 1st Bass on second cast. 7 fish landed in about 25 minutes. Posted a couple of the photos of the Bass I caught.

Bob G : Pricey but we'll designed topwater bass lure

Been a fan of the whopper plopper for a long time. They are a well designed durable lure that has lifelike movement with a very nice spinning tail. Hooks are extremely sharp. Knocking a star off simply over price. No lure should be this expensive period

shawn : I LOVE THESE PLOPPERS!

GREAT BASS LURE.

AW : Good product

Performs well

frank s : Great lure

Loved this lure unfortunately line broke after few casts and lost it to lake Michigan

Patrick Kehoe : Great topwater action

For open-water, it's awesome. Makes a ton of noise. And the fish come. Stripers love the big one.

Amazon Customer : Bass catcher!

Whopper Plopper is such a good too water bait! The first day I used my plopper I caught 8 largemouth within a half mile if shoreline. I was just bringing it over rock in shallow water. Even thought I lost it once because a bass took it under in-between rocks and broke my line but good thing is it floated right back to the top and I retrieved it easily. If you fish tournaments this is worth every penny. Even if you just pleasure fish it's worth the good times.

MJ-54 : Run true in the water

I have the black, white, green, and red. But I need to watch more videos on how to fish them. They all run true and really churn up the water, but have not worked for me - yet. I will learn more about how to fish them.

Harold : Great lure I wish I got the smaller one in ...

Exactly what a lure should do, put fish in the boat. This really excites the bass and they crush it.
