A classic "Frog" finish, featuring vibrant green tones accented by yellow-rimmed black spots, defines the aesthetic of this vintage surface lure. Tipping the scales at 1/3 oz (9 g), the Berkley Popper, identified by Product Code 8882, was manufactured in the USA for casting into areas with heavy surface-reaching vegetation. The construction is characterized by a distinctive clear plastic cupped face designed to interact with the water's surface, paired with a bright red chin area for high visual contrast. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm), the body is equipped with two sets of treble hooks, one located on the belly and one at the tail. This specific specimen is in excellent condition, rated 5/5, with the paint and hardware showing very little signs of use. It is a purpose-built tool for targeting pike and perch in environments where submerged weeds make other lures difficult to manage.
