Shimano World Pop 69F Review

I picked up one of the new freshwater series lures by Shimano, the World Pop 69F popper and took it out for a showdown with some small but aggressive Peacocks. For more information, please visit:

Great video. You got a sub from me when you picked up that trash. Curious - how is the “pop” sound on that lure? Does it boom or is it subtle?

[@flbasspaddler]

Thank you for the sub! It has a decent “pop” to it with subtle twitched with the rod tip. You can quiet it down if you choose, just need to be cognizant of keeping the rod twitching very subtle.

Great review. I made a few videos on the shimano popper as well and had almost the same experience you did. Eye came off on the same side and front split ring began to open up after several fish. Lure does have strike drawing power though.

Thank You for the kind words. Yes it does, the Flash Boost technology is really cool, and is probably even more effective in their crankbait models.

great review had my eye on this lure but im gonna have to pass on it. I think pricing does not match the lure's quality, it's flash technology is what i think ur really paying for and its not worth it at its price point especially when there is tons of poppers out there that do the same thing at a much lower cost. I'm glad i didnt buy it thanks to ur review and watching u catch multiple fish on this lure i notice that u handle the lure pretty fairly and typical with no abuse at all really so to lose a treble and an eye is just sad lol not worth buying

Thank you for cleaning up the trash. It’s good karma. The fishing gods will reward you.
