Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the 6" 3 oz Little Neck Popper floating or sinking?
A: This specific model is heavy sinking. While it produces intense topwater popping action when retrieved quickly with the rod tip up, its 3 oz weight allows it to sink quickly when paused to target fish holding under the surface.
