Fishing with the BERKLEY CHOPPO | Explosive Results

Had a little bit of time to fish so I took advantage of it. We had experienced a couple of rainy day in a row and I wasn't sure if the fish would be active enough to fish topwater, but it had warmed up and the sun was out so I thought it was worth a try. I had some good succes, I'm really impressed with the Berkley Choppo, it really has a distinctive sound and functions very well.

very we;; my friend nice seeing people bring in the slabbs with the chappo cant wait to try mine out

[@MidwestBassHunter]

The Choppo is a great lure. It’s easy to fish and it catches em. I like it just a little better than the plopper.

[@teamcramerfishing8441]

Love the sound of those things! And you got some nice fish out of that little pond.

[@MidwestBassHunter]

I love the way it sounds, and it operates quite well.

[@-fishingvideos-liorben-hai2447]

Great video my friend

[@MidwestBassHunter]

Thanks

[@timperry6095]

That’s some nice topwater action. It’s crazy how some little bass try to take out baits almost as big as they are. Makes me wonder if they are actually trying to eat it, or just attacking out of a territorial response of some sort.

[@MidwestBassHunter]

I think half the time it’s an anger thing when the small fish attack big baits

[@MrMagnificents]

Love the choppo. Got 3 black,bone and a silver of the choppo 90's. Ordering the 110 today

[@MidwestBassHunter]

I haven’t picked up a 90 yet, I wonder if they will come out with a bigger one 🤔

[@MrMagnificents]

@@MidwestBassHunter I think they only have the 2 sizes.the 90 and 110.The 90's are at most Walmarts I've seen.

[@MidwestBassHunter]

Dana Collins it’s actually a 90 and a 120, 10 millimeters longer than the 110 Whopper Plopper. Here’s a review I did of it with underwater footage kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJqrZIyJpcaZjaM

[@bassma5ter11]

2 years later... haha but I just wanted to put my $.02 in, I think you needed a rod that had a little more of a parabolic bend to keep those treble hooks buttoned. Also, when a fish tries to surface to jump, you can drop your rod tip and pull to the side to try and stop that jump from happening. That's where they get more leverage and are able to throw a heavier bait like that. Great video and nice catches!

[@MidwestBassHunter]

Hey thanks for commenting, all great points. I have changed my line rather than change my rod, I used to use braid but have since realized that mono is a much better option for topwater baits with treble hooks. Gotta have some give in the system! Again thanks for watching and commenting, I appreciate your input as I am always trying to improve!

[@janosczovek8524]

Good video really enjoyed it thanks 👍

[@MidwestBassHunter]

You bet, keep watching Janos!

[@mmacionk2]

Nice done, this lure looks awesome

[@MidwestBassHunter]

Thanks, I think it’s a good one

[@madison7068]

Wow, SIR

[@MidwestBassHunter]

Thanks

[@chadtindell4388]

Great video man! You are just like me I love pond hopping and am a tackle junkie lol keep up the great work do you like the choppo better than the plopper

[@MidwestBassHunter]

I do like the Choppo better. I think it sounds better and operates better, and it’s cheaper. Check out my channel, I have a review video of it with underwater footage.

[@cascapediastjules8796]

Just picked up a Choppo 120 after watching your vid. Great vid. New subscriber here.

[@MidwestBassHunter]

Thanks, it is a great lure and so much for to use, good luck with it. Thanks for subscribing I appreciate the support!

[@daryldaryl887]

What color Choppo is best in New England, northeast usa, NH.

[@MidwestBassHunter]

Depends what your primary forage is. What are the bass in your lakes eating? There are a couple colors that seem to work wherever such as bone or black. The other thing to take into consideration is the fact that topwater baits are not very visible to the fish. They most likely just see a silhouette above them against the lighted backdrop of the sky. So go with whatever color you like or have confidence in.

[@StaticSift]

get you some vector hooks to replace the stock trebles

[@MidwestBassHunter]

Trae Crabtree never used Vector hooks before

[@fun649]

You will have a better hookup ratio if you change out the hooks to EWG they stay pinned

[@MidwestBassHunter]

I actually think the round bends do a better job hooking the fish but the EWG does a better job of keeping em pinned. What about using one of each???

[@jhayes_fishing20]

I caught my first top water bass off Berkley Choppo

[@MidwestBassHunter]

Nice! Exciting I bet! It’s a great lure.

[@jhayes_fishing20]

Midwest Bass Hunter yes sirrr it was

[@m2m-minutestomidnightbassi925]

Miss fishing small strip mine pothole ponds and lakes. They’re what I grew up fishing. I guess you picked the right bait for the conditions, eh? Lol Hey, you want to know what feels worse than losing a decent fish like you did? I think you saw that 40” pike I caught and posted on Facebook last Tuesday...yeah what I didn’t mention was that pike knocked my Dobyns Xtasy and Curado K overboard in 40 to 50’ of water 🤬 a buddy of mine went out with me Friday and we cast homemade rod retrievers around for an hour or so with no luck. I am so pissed. I might possibly hire a diver depending on the cost 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@MidwestBassHunter]

Wow that totally sucks!!! I have yet to loose a rod in the water. Left one behind on the bank once though, went back and it was gone. Nice job on that pike, it was a beast!

[@m2m-minutestomidnightbassi925]

Midwest Bass Hunter yeah that was the first time I’ve lost a rod-n-reel ☹️ there may be good news. I have insanely good ‘’wrap” business/personal insurance that I pay dearly for and my agent said there’s a better than good chance I’ll get a replacement. I told him to show me where I’m paying for an “idiots” clause lol and he just said “let me worry about it” ok. Guess we’ll see

[@MidwestBassHunter]

M2M-MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT BASSIN hopefully they’ll make you whole, good luck dude

[@m2m-minutestomidnightbassi925]

Midwest Bass Hunter thanks brother

[@StaticSift]

[@luismonroy7856]

I hate ya cuz you are better fisherman that me hehe kidding bro

[@MidwestBassHunter]

I’m not that good but editing helps 🤣

[@elijahjohnson5872]

How does this compare to the whopper plopped?

[@MidwestBassHunter]

They both work great. I like the Choppo better though. Noisier and it always plops great.

[@terrysmith1252]

Explosive results to bad none on camera
