REBEL CrickHopper Popper. I Like this Topwater! Best creek lure for fish. Best lure to catch fish

[@kalebcox3618]

Love your channel man!!

[@TBassFactory]

Thanks caleb

[@redfishrambo5761]

I've fished this lure for at least 12 years and it's always something i go to when I just can't catch a fish with anything else. You can fish it in several ways too, not just by popping it. My favorite way to fish this thing is extremely slowly. I throw it out and let it sit for a few seconds and then I start very lightly shaking my rod tip on a slack line to make the bait tremble and displace just a little bit of water, and then let it sit for a few seconds. I'll add in a little pop or two on the retrieve to get anything that is following it to make a reaction strike. It makes it resemble a cricket or bug on the water a little better and the bluegill and sunfish seem to love it fished like that. You'll occasionally catch a big bass on it too, especially if you fish it around structure in deeer water. It makes a really good topwater popper for bass on pressured lakes and rivers because of it's smaller size, you'll catch a lot of smaller fish mixed in but some fish is better than no fish.

[@TBassFactory]

You know your stuff, and definitely have a deep knowledge of this lure.

[@dawsonperry9210]

My favourite lure hands down has put me one some 2plus pound small mouth everytime i lose one i buy another

[@elisalewis7522]

I'm new to lures ; do you use weights (sling shots) with it ?

[@sunnyt4212]

@@elisalewis7522no boss. Not typically. Only to get it down further and only enough to get it barely to bottom. 9/10 no added weight

[@bcuh0968]

Great video, that part where the big sunfish and bass were stacked up and smashing the crank just as it hits the water was just so special. thanks for sharing it with us!

[@TBassFactory]

Oh yeah! I love it when they hit like that. Thanks bud

[@garybond3663]

Great day on the creek.

[@TBassFactory]

It was a great day out there. Thanks gary

[@lonesteelwolfjacksonlonewo3412]

I am glad you did this video cuz I've been thinking about getting the rebel Creek popper I've got the the creek hoppers and the teeny weeny crankbait I've heard some good stuff about the rebel Creek popper but I wanted to see it in action thanks for sharing your video and your love for fishing

[@TBassFactory]

Your welcome bud. They will straight up catch some fish, and have some good popping action.

[@fee8255]

I got one of these lures about year and a half ago used it once had no luck and haven’t used it since. I was using a little rebel crawl bait and caught a catfish and some huge ass fish that I think might of been a carp but I lost that fish. I’m going to have to take the grasshopper popper out soon, you got me all jazzed up about this lure again. Thanks for the video. Peace out ✌️

[@TBassFactory]

Your welcome michael. Good luck out there.

[@SpdSnakier]

hey 3 years late but I was fishing with this exact same bait and caught a lot hood video man

[@TBassFactory]

Ha these lures are good all of the time! Thanks bud!

[@laurentiuborlovan5244]

Thank you God bless you ! Nice video

[@TBassFactory]

Same to you bud

[@hunguponfishing1289]

Nicely done man gonna have to try that one

[@TBassFactory]

Yeah it’s a cool twist on the crock hopper. It is definitely a specific kind of lure.

[@steventanner1428]

The REBEL crawfish is one of my go to lures. There aren't many bass where I live. I have caught sunfish perch and trout on it. The regular crickhopper works later in the season here.

[@steventanner1428]

PS you need to set the hook with the REBEL lures or you will miss a bunch of fish.

[@TBassFactory]

@@steventanner1428 thanks bud, yeah I usually just reel up on them with the lighter line. The craw and the crickhoppeer are 2 awesome lures. They sure can catch them.

[@TonyGilbert1]

Nice I have em all the hothead works great in my area the redhead gets bass like crazy

[@TBassFactory]

Yeah it's crazy, how effective these are and how changing up the colors can get you more bites.

[@QwansVlogs]

You earned this sub!!

[@TBassFactory]

Oh yeah! Thank ya bud

[@michaelbyrne8860]

Please tigthen up your drag! Cranking and allowing the drag to be lose will only put twist in the line of your spinning reel! It's better to tighten up your drag a keep the reel off anti reverse and just back reel if you the line is under to much tension! By back reeling and yoyo the fish it'll tireout quicker and save your line from twisting especially on line 6lbs and under!

[@TBassFactory]

You got that right Michael! Thanks bud!

[@Magik8_ball3785]

I used a grasshopper lure today and caught a bass on my first attempt

[@TBassFactory]

Oh yeah! Thats awesome bud! They catch them that’s for sure. You might catch some panfish too

[@CamoCollie]

It's crazy how fast sunfish will bite. I had just the head of a cricket on my hook and was catching fish within 30 seconds.

[@TBassFactory]

Yeah, they will attack like sharks sometimes. Its fun catching those feisty little things.

[@CamoCollie]

@@TBassFactory I've got some fat pregnant ones in my tank and sometimes they fight harder than the catfish

[@TBassFactory]

That sounds cool. I love feeding time with the fish in aquariums

[@thegtafam9060]

Love it keep it up

[@TBassFactory]

Thanks gta fam, I appreciate it

[@TBassFactory]

Has anyone ever used a REBEL Crick Popper?

[@TheJizzler420]

just got one today one of my first pieces of tackle

[@fashopimpin]

It is a beast

[@fashopimpin]

Crazy the other day I used it I guess my drag was to tight and the fish snapped my line... He later shook the crick hopper loose while I was getting a drink my pops caught the line attached to the crick hopper while he was reeling it in another bluegill hopped on it so I got my bait back and he got another fish lmao

[@keelyjohnson2001]

I’ve got one caught a few good sized blue gill with it

[@burningheart86402]

Yes!! Excellent bait for bass, bluegill and occasionally a trout.

[@alciao3441]

Nice video. Can you use Rebel Crickhopper Popper as a crankbait? Will it catch 2 x3 lb bass?

[@TBassFactory]

It will catch some big bass, but it is .ain't a together bait and it will not dive like a crankbait.

[@alciao3441]

@@TBassFactory thanks and keep videos coming!

[@OmarLopez-kh3dx]

How do you tie the lure to the line

[@TBassFactory]

On this one an improved clinch knot.

[@roylabra6933]

what kind of rod is that and reel? i like it

[@TBassFactory]

I have several, but I'm budget minded so my spinning reels and rods are always under $20. Surprisingly

[@daafterhrs]

So the cricket didn’t work

[@TBassFactory]

That thing is unbelievable on the creek during the summer but somedays are better than others.

[@jn4806]

What line are you using?

[@TBassFactory]

I really like to use 8 or 10 lb braid especially with a top water, but if it is a crankbait I will switch to mono to get it down a little more since braid likes to float more than mono does.

[@swaggyp5705]

Why do you use them crappy 8 dollar zebcos

[@angelcastellon1063]

whats the name of that creek

[@TBassFactory]

That is cibolo creek

[@seamusjoyce3651]

I live there too and never tried the creek. I’m gonna have to

[@edwardkelly5625]

FISH ARE ON THE CRICKHOPPER LIKE A HOBO ON A HAM SANDWICH...

[@TBassFactory]

That’s awesome Edward, they sure are.

[@williambagley1022]

I have one them baits

[@TBassFactory]

They have been working pretty good near the bank lately. I think the Bluegills have been feeding heavy on grasshoppers.

[@angelcastellon1063]

whats your fishbrain username

[@TBassFactory]

I have only used Fishbrain a couple of times.
