Received an email from Tacklesupplydepot.com and they say they expect to get this new sized WP sometime at the end of May.  You would think that other tackle stores will get it around the same time.  This size is in between the current two sizes, 90 and 130.

It kinda seemed to me that the main allure to the WP was it's size and weight (130).     You can get tight to the bank and fire a looong parralel cast, then just plop all the way back.  The longer the cast the better because fish tend to follow it for awhile. 

I'm not too sure that I would have a use for the smaller/lighter ones.   Am I missing something?

I've had days where it seemed the 130 would start to spook bass.  Usually that would occur on schooling bass that are busting shad.  I'd throw the 130, get a few fish, then they acted like that 130 was spooking them.  Switch out to a walker or the 90 size and I would start getting bites again.  110 might be a good compromise.

I've never been bit on the smaller one and have thrown it a ton.  I don't know what I'm doing wrong.  I just don't like it at all.  I throw the 130 and get bites but only when it's moving pretty good and they just smash it.  I think the commotion is what draws strikes with it but I could be wrong.

My 90 series one dont work right, takes a few feet of travel before the tail spins, the 130 works great havent thrown them that much though. Anyone have any luck with the double plopper?

I know everything about nothing and know nothing about everything!

I got the same E-mail Quillback. I will probably buy a couple and try them out.l

I am good with the 130 and if that does spook them I will throw the Spitn-image! Game over!
