Yo-Zuri R1433-C4 3D Inshore Pencil Popper 135mm Silver Black

Overview

Meet the Yo-Zuri R1433-C4 3D Inshore Pencil Popper, a versatile back bay lure crafted for angling inshore waters. Its flat bottom and horizontal posture deliver a stable, easy walking action that can be nudged 180 degrees side to side. The cupped mouth creates a water-spitting wake as you retrieve, adding a lively surface cue that can help draw attention in busy inshore zones.

Key design and performance benefits

• Flat bottom and horizontal posture for a simple, repeatable walking action
• 180-degree side-to-side walking range to cover a broad presentation arc
• Rear-weighted single knock cadence rattle to call fish from longer distances
• Internal painted and 3D prism finishes that resist chipping and wear

Designed for long, accurate casts, this 5-3/8 inch, 1 oz lure balances form and weight to cut through current and reach structure with confidence. The tail-first tracking and balanced profile help maintain a straight flight path, helping you place the lure where it matters most in flats, bays, and backwaters.

Durability and hardware

• Triple-strength saltwater-grade hooks and split rings for broad species compatibility
• Finish and color engineered to withstand saltwater exposure without rapid wear

Species versatility is a key benefit, with anglers reporting favorable results on striped bass, snook, redfish, trophy seatrout, bluefish, trevally and more when matched with the right gear and retrieve cadence. The 3D prism finish adds depth and flash without compromising durability, giving the lure a lifelike presence in varied light conditions.

How to fish the lure

Start with a steady retrieve to encourage the walking action, then add short pauses to let the lure pause and re-engage. A smooth, rhythmic cadence often triggers following fish, while a slightly longer pause can provoke strikes from targets lurking near structure. Pair this lure with a balanced rod and line setup that supports long casts and precise control in wind or current.

What you can expect

This lure is engineered to deliver consistent performance across a range of inshore environments. While results depend on angling conditions, the combination of a flat bottom, water-spitting mouth, and a rear rattle provides multiple action cues aimed at enticing energetic strikes rather than guaranteeing outcomes.
