    I'm sold!!! That whopper popper 60 puts in the work!!! Can't beat the topwater bite!!! Keep doing what your doing brother 👍

      Thanks so much! I’ve enjoyed pretty much every Plopper I’ve tried so far. 👍

    Love throwing the 90 in the right conditions. I’ve had a couple of epic days.

    • @TheMichiganFisherman
      @TheMichiganFisherman  Před 2 lety

      I have one Plopper in the 90 but I haven’t given it enough of a chance yet. Maybe that’ll be my next topwater video 🤔😀

  • @NorthernMike
    @NorthernMike Před 2 lety +1

    Absolutely good advice to change up the cadence now and then. Of course it also works with other baits too (jerk bait etc.)
    That 1st male Pumpkinseed was beautiful! Over the years I've had a few in my aquariums. They're more ornery than one would think.

    • @TheMichiganFisherman
      @TheMichiganFisherman  Před 2 lety

      Good point about the jerkbait.
      Pumpkinseeds are so beautiful, especially on a sunny day with the light glistening on them.

  • @live2fishofficial
    @live2fishofficial Před 2 lety +2

    Great tip on the importance of changing up that cadence when retrieving those top waters in. That thing was a bass magnet out there! I had the same thing when they were almost to the boat and would hit it just before ending the retrieve. Even with that larger Savage Gear, it was all smaller ones for me hitting that tail treble. You definitely got some upgrades as you went along!
    I gotta be honest, the older I get the more I dislike treble hooks lol! It’s awesome how aggressive they’ve been in following the baits and giving multiple strikes. Good number of fish, didn’t get yourself hooked - I’d say that was a successful outing. Beautiful pumpkin seeds, outstanding on top water too!
    Another great episode Bryan!👏

    • @TheMichiganFisherman
      @TheMichiganFisherman  Před 2 lety

      Thanks! I’ve easily doubled my strikes, maybe tripled, by adding pauses and pops to the Whopper Plopper.
      Forgot to say it out loud so I made sure to add it in the fine print there.
      I also hate treble hooks but I especially hate those small ones. I just can’t get a good grip on them to pull them out.

  • @ParabellumFishing
    @ParabellumFishing Před 2 lety +1

    Bro even with dinks, top water is king! I like the smaller presentation. I’ll definitely be grabbing one and trying it out. Glad that hook didn’t get ya worse. Great video! 👊🏻

    • @TheMichiganFisherman
      @TheMichiganFisherman  Před 2 lety +1

      Good thing about small trebles is they can only run so deep 😂
      Definitely worth a pickup. I like the Bone color for day fishing but I actually bought that lure AT the store and Powder was the closest they had to it.

  • @bogolyskeepingitreel
    @bogolyskeepingitreel Před 2 lety +1

    What an awesome outing Bryan!!! Those pumpkinseeds were beautiful looking n good sized. I have two 60’s I was saving for a creek near me. Might have to try them out on the Delaware river!! Great share brother👍

    • @TheMichiganFisherman
      @TheMichiganFisherman  Před 2 lety +1

      I hope you slay them! The Delaware might move too fast for them but it’s worth a shot.
      I think hookup ratio will be better on small creeks with Smallies. I probably won’t use it again until then. Or it might be a good first lure for my kid to throw. Would be fun to see for sure.

  • @TheCombatFishinVet

    I'm a big fan of the whopper plopper for sure!!! I have it in every size except the 60. In the 75,90,110,130 & 190 in multiple colors. Ive been wanting to get the 60 just haven't pulled the trigger yet. Good day on the water Sir!!!

    • @TheMichiganFisherman
      @TheMichiganFisherman  Před 2 lety +1

      Thanks, John! I feel the bigger ones definitely swim better and that the 60 has it’s time and place, I just can’t justify tossing it over the bigger ones most of the times.
      I’ll definitely be creek fishing with it one day. That’s where they seem to shine the most.

  • @Midwesthookset
    @Midwesthookset Před 2 lety +1

    @JoeNajorFishing Před 2 lety +1

    Don’t you just love when you see them hit your bait? So cool. Sorry bro, but I laughed out loud at the count down to treble hook pain. 😂 Trebles can be annoying, plus they ruin nets. 😂 Great video buddy !!

    • @TheMichiganFisherman
      @TheMichiganFisherman  Před 2 lety +1

      Thanks! I absolutely love topwater. Nothing better…especially hearing it in the dark night fishing when a 3 pounder smokes it.
      Agreed that treble hooks suck. Luckily I’ve never been seriously hurt but I k ow that day is coming 😂

    I tend to always go white or bone with my hard topwaters. I wonder what advantage a WP 60 has over the other sizes. It sure got some good numbers.

    • @TheMichiganFisherman

      Bone was out at the store so I went with the Powder.
      Honestly, not sure what advantage it has either 🤔

  • @LarrysFishing
    @LarrysFishing Před 2 lety +1

    What an awesome session with that new lure. Loved that you caught different types too. Just a question, went out myself this week with a topwater lure for an hour, didn't even get a strike, but what do you mean by changing the way you retrieve a lure, is it just the speed you reel it in? Thanks and great job Bryan!!!

    • @TheMichiganFisherman
      @TheMichiganFisherman  Před 2 lety +1

      Yes. Sometimes I do a straight retrieve. Sometimes I add pauses. Sometimes I’ll pop the lure to have it make a louder gurgle and splash.
      Usually I get WAY more strikes when I’m adding pauses and pops.
