Yo-Zuri R1444-PGSH 3DB Pencil Popper – 110mm Prism Ghost Shad

Overview

The Yo-Zuri R1444-PGSH 3DB Pencil Popper delivers precise topwater action with a compact, walkable profile. At 110 millimeters (4-3/8 inches) in length, this lure balances visibility and maneuverability, delivering a lively surface presence that can grab attention from afar.

Key features combine to create a surface-focused allure: a patented 3D Internal Prism that reflects light in multiple directions, a rear Mylar tail on the treble for extra flash, and a cupped mouth that spouts water side to side during retrieves. With a single cadence rattle and three black nickel treble hooks, this lure offers a crisp, responsive pull that can translate to more follow-ups and strike opportunities.

• Patented 3D Internal Prism that captures and refracts light from every angle
• Rear Mylar tail on the rear treble adds extra flash and movement
• Designed to walk the dog with ease and precision, including the ability to turn 180 degrees without forward movement
• Three black nickel treble hooks for reliable hookups
• Water-splashing cadence with a subtle rattle to entice surface strikes

Across 11 color patterns, these finishes blend Yo-Zuri’s prism technology with internal painted details for depth, contrast, and visibility in varied light conditions. The Prism Ghost Shad palette offers a natural, lifelike silhouette with reflective accents that shimmer as the lure skates across the surface.

Why it works on the water

The combination of a cupped mouth and side-to-side water displacement creates a distinctive wake that fish can key in on from a distance. The 3D prism finish enhances flash as the lure moves, while the heady surface tension of the popper keeps the lure visible even in choppy or stained water. The Mylar tail adds trailing flash, helping to maintain motion behind the lure as it glides along the surface. This setup is designed to be highly responsive to light and water movement, inviting follow-up strikes and confident hooks when a fish decides to commit.

How to fish this lure

• Cast toward structure, banks, or feeding flats and begins a steady, controlled retrieve.
• Use short, rhythmic twitches and pauses to walk the dog and vary the surface cadence.
• Experiment with cadence and pause length to suit water clarity and the mood of the fish.
• Keep tension on the line and monitor the surface wake for subtle indicators of following fish.
