Anyone had a chance to try one of these yet? I saw one for sale on the trader board so I'm assuming a few guys have them.

I used one for a few throws before the rock gods consummed it. But the short time I did use it I was really impressed with the volume of the noise that was made from the plopper.

I am heading up to Thorne Bros tomorrow to pick up a couple more to get some better frist hand usage. But from what I was able to see it is a lure that is a must have in every tackle box. Sweet sound!!!!

I got to use mine last week and really liked it. Awesome finish to the bait and throws good water and has a good pop. For $20 bucks not bad at all.

I have to ask....How do you lose a topwater bait in rocks? "rock gods"? did Jimi Hendrix come steal it?

So far I really like mine, it spits a lot of water and rides the waves nicely without rolling over.

It is called being a idiot and not paying attention to were you are throwing it. I was on Leech and fishing around Gull island which is just a large rock island above water. Well while casting I was chatting with the wife and the next thing you know I threw it right in a little hole between 3 rocks. Well that was the end of that lure.

I told the guy working in the marina at the resort exactly where it is so when the ice freezes up he can go out and get it. He said he does that already every winter. He said that he usually get 4-5 new lures every winter due to dummies like me!!!!!

Used mine for about an hour this past Tuesday.  Nice loud bait with lots of water being moved.  I like it a lot.

Highly doubtful. Jimi seems more like a double 10 type of guy. Ozzy seems more like the topwater type.

I haven't used it for for any extended period of time but it seems to be very well built. It has a very unique sound and the hooks he uses are awesome!!!

I have moved a bunch of fish on mine but none on the bag. So far it's been a good search lure and even caught two of those fish with throwback baits. Nice sound, different.
