Hi,

I really like the Topwalkers with the hybrid half top water, half bucktail set up, so I am looking to pick a couple this off season. Has anyone tried the Flashabou version ? How do you like it versus the standard hair ?

Does anybody use Skimmer's ? How do you like them ?

I thought somebody made one similar to the Topwalker also, but I have lost the link. If you remember, please let me know thanks.

Thank you for your time.

Pal,
We came out with the Hairy Plopper around the same time as the Topwalkers. Ours has the tinsel tails.

Hairy Plopper:

One of the differences with the Hairy Plopper is that it is a count down model. When you reel it in it snaps back up to the surface and plops away or you can dead stick it and it sinks at about 2"/second. Nice little difference to mix things up with topwaters.

Specifications:
- 12 inches in length
- Rate of fall is 2" per second
- Real Gold plated front prop
- Made from 0.032" thick metal
- Two sets of premium flash skirts
- Two 3x thick Musky Hooks
- Weight 3.4 oz

Thanks James,

I have checked yours out also, and did wonder a bit how yours differed, thank you.
