Yo-Zuri 3DB Pencil Popper 110mm Real Bluegill (Floating) – Topwater Lure

Overview

The Yo-Zuri R1444-RBG 3DB Pencil Popper is a compact topwater walking lure built for smooth, surface-only action. At 110 mm (4-3/8 inches) and floating, it delivers a crisp cadence and a subtle side-to-side water plume that can draw attention from a distance. The Real Bluegill colorway combines Yo-Zuri’s 3D prism finish with an internal painted layer for a lifelike look as soon as it hits the water.

Designed to be easy to fish, this lure balances precision control with a quick, reactive walk-the-dog motion. A single cadence-style rattle adds a light aquatic sound that pairs with its visible flash to help the lure stand out on sunny days or murkier water. The cupped mouth helps spray water from side to side, creating a bite-sized commotion that can help calm or entice curious fish as you work the surface.

Key Features

• Patented 3D Internal Prism that reflects light in all directions
• Rear Mylar tail adds extra flash and subtle movement
• 180-degree turning ability without forward movement, aiding precise pauses
• Three black nickel treble hooks for strong hookup potential
• Easy To “Walk The Dog” with minimal effort

The lure comes in 11 color patterns, giving anglers options to match water clarity, light conditions, and local forage. The combination of reflective prism, natural color tones, and the built-in rattle makes this pencil popper a versatile option for surface fishing across ponds, lakes, and inshore waters.

Performance on the Water

• Light, surface-level commotion that’s visible in bright sun or low light
• Stable topwater track with predictable action that’s friendly for beginners and seasoned anglers alike
• Solid casting potential for long or short retrieves, depending on water depth and cover
• Rattle cadence adds a subtle sonic cue that complements surface strikes

Whether you’re fishing calm mornings or windy afternoons, this lure offers a tangible topwater presence without requiring aggressive retrievals. While results vary with conditions, the combination of light reflection, water spray, and a lifelike profile aims to create compelling surface interactions. Consider trying multiple color patterns to identify what attracts interest on your local waters, and adjust retrieves to keep the lure near structure, ambush points, or break lines.
