The Berkley Choppo is an easy-to-use, durable topwater fishing lure known for its loud plopping sound and explosive surface action that attracts bass. It features a unique cupped propeller tail designed to start spinning immediately and swim straight at various retrieve speeds.
Key Features:
- Action & Sound: The durable, cupped propeller tail creates a significant wake and enticing "plop-plop" sound on the water's surface, which calls fish to strike.
- Ease of Use: Designed for all skill levels, the lure is a "chunk and wind" bait that requires no special tuning and can be used effectively by both beginners and experienced anglers.
- Durability: The plastic tail is designed to be durable and resist melting or warping, even in a hot tackle box.
- Hooks: It comes equipped with sharp Fusion19™ treble hooks for a high hookup ratio and secure catches.
- Versatility: It is effective in a variety of freshwater conditions, from open water to around shallow cover, docks, and vegetation edges.
Lure Features
- Color: The "maverick" color is all black. This makes it a popular choice for fishing in low-light conditions, such as on cloudy days or during dawn and dusk. The solid black color provides a strong silhouette against the sky, which can attract fish when they are actively feeding on the surface. The black lure body is designed to absorb light, creating a strong contrast for fishing looking up from below.
- Tail: It has a durable, cupped propeller tail designed to produce a prominent "plopping" sound and create maximum water spray.
- Hooks: The lure is equipped with sharp Fusion19 treble hooks, providing strong holding power when a fish strikes.
- Action: A precision-weighted tail ensures the bait swims straight and the propeller starts immediately on the retrieve.
When To Use
The choice between them depends on the conditions you are fishing in and the size of baitfish that predatory fish are feeding on.
1 oz Choppo (120mm)
- Size: The larger 1 oz, 120mm Choppo is meant to imitate larger baitfish.
- Action: It creates the maximum surface disturbance of all the Choppo sizes, with the most sound and spray. This louder "plopping" sound is ideal for calling up fish from a distance.
-
Best for:
- Calm to choppy conditions: The extra weight and bulk help the lure stay stable and effective in choppier water.
- Low visibility: The louder sound is a major advantage when fish are feeding in low-light, stained, or muddy water.
- Aggressive fish: A larger profile and more aggressive action can attract bigger, more aggressive fish.
3/4 oz Choppo (105mm)
- Size: The mid-sized 3/4 oz, 105mm Choppo provides a smaller profile, which can better match the size of smaller baitfish.
- Action: It still creates significant noise and wake, but with a slightly more subtle and refined action than the 1 oz version.
-
Best for:
- Versatile conditions: This size is considered a great "halfway point," working well in both calm and choppy conditions when a smaller profile is desired.
- Fussy fish: When fish are being picky or targeting smaller bait, the 3/4 oz offers a less intrusive presentation.
- Clear water: In clear water, where fish rely more on sight, a slightly smaller lure can appear more natural and less intimidating.
Which Should You Choose?
- If you want maximum disturbance to draw fish from far away, especially in low-visibility or aggressive conditions, go with the 1 oz (120mm) lure.
- If you want a versatile "jack-of-all-trades" lure that can be used in a wider range of conditions and mimic slightly smaller forage, the 3/4 oz (105mm) is an excellent choice.
