Kingdom Propeller Whopper Popper Topwater Lure
This propeller-tail pencil bait combines a walking topwater body with a whirling plastic prop blade for a surface disturbance bass cannot ignore. On a steady retrieve the tail kicks and churns, throwing a bubble trail and a distinct plopping sound that carries well across flat, calm water. Pause it and the bait sits with a subtle side-to-side rock, giving hesitant fish one more look before the strike.
Built with a hard body and a treble-rigged tail section, it is sized to cover water fast for largemouth around grass edges and lily pads, and works just as well for smallmouth patrolling rocky points and open flats. Best fished on baitcasting gear in low light, overcast conditions, or early morning and evening topwater windows.

How to fish it
- Cast tight to grass lines, laydowns, or rocky points where bass ambush baitfish near the surface.

- Add short pauses between retrieve bursts to let the bait rock in place before the next strike window.
- Fish it early morning, evening, or overcast days when bass are actively feeding near the surface.
