I've never caught a fish on a popper lure, but I've caught tons of fish on popper flies. Something about a gurgler that fish can't resist. I get most of my bites before I ever pop it.

This video demonstrates why I prefer the fly rod. I personally believe it’s the better tool as far as hookup ratio and cast accuracy.

I agree, itnhas some advantages. Quicker follow-up casts, accuracy, fishing certain depths more precisely, casting behind objects. I would say downsides would be range and wind.

Just opinion….When using the spinning reel, your tip is down to the left, when you get a strike you’re raising to the upper right creating slack while trying to set the hook. If you were possibly able to pull back and reel on the left side everything should stay tight. Love the fly fishing section!

You did a great job proving to the average person that a poor cast on a fly rod, does not preclude excellent, top water bass fishing. Work on the creep & jab first with the fly rod, as it's one of the hardest things to correct. Fly fishing is antithetical to spinning or baitcasting systems in general. Everything that makes a great cast with a spincast reel, ruins a fly cast. I may sound like a purest, but I'm still working through some of the hacks too. 👻 good luck to all who attempt to fly rod hang around long enough to obtain proficiency, you'll rarely go back to your spinning equipment again.

Great vid! I think you may just be having a “bed of nails” effect with the conventional popper with the multiple hook prongs. Try a single hook on the tail with or without a treble in the middle or just a single treble on the end.

Try a softer action rod on the "conventional" popper, pretty sure your line was going slack giving ol' bucketmouth the chance to spit it, it's the sort of thing that drives a fella nuts, especially when you know your on the right lure, try a moderate or moderate fast instead of a fast action rod

Would have sucked if that line jammed up your motor. You'd have spent the rest of the day going in circles! Unheard of that a single hook had more hookups than two trebles. Then again, they seemed to hit the fly harder. They just didn't fiully commit to the other popper. Great video though!

Since you made this in 2019, I hope you have learned how to play a fish with a fly rod. Your hook set is okay but when the fish begins to run... let it run until the fish has taken out the line to the point you can use your reel. Stripping the line in is okay when a fish is on after all at this time you were new to fly fishing for bass. Good fishing and tight lines!

Amazing video but I think you could have landed way more fish on the regular pooper if you just loosened your drag bec the fish were just pulling the trebles through their lip. That is just what has helped me in the past anyways.
