Topwater prop-bait family built around a rotating molded tail that creates the Whopper Plopper’s signature surface sound and disturbance. River2Sea offers the platform across multiple sizes from compact 60 mm through large 190 mm variants, with rattling and silent configurations in parts of the range.
WHAT MATTERS
Rotating Molded Plopper Tail
Soft molded tail rotates on its harness to create the Whopper Plopper's characteristic surface sound and disturbance.
Multi-Size Topwater Family
Current River2Sea family spans compact 60 mm through large 190 mm variants for different forage and target-fish profiles.
Heavy-Duty Treble Hardware
Larger variants use X-Strong or 4X Strong River2Sea treble hooks and reinforced hook hardware.
Rattle + Silent Variant Options
The 130 family includes rattling and silent versions, while 75/90/110 variants are listed without rattles.
Roll-Resistant Surface Retrieve
Whopper Plopper bodies are designed to track on the surface across varied retrieve speeds while the tail produces plopping action.

THE TOPWATER BAIT THAT MADE NOISE A WHOLE CATEGORY
The Whopper Plopper works because its rotating tail creates a repeatable surface disturbance that is easy to fish and hard to miss. The broad size range lets the same basic idea scale from smaller freshwater presentations to oversized predator-oriented baits, making the family more versatile than one fixed lure. It is still a commitment to a noisy topwater presentation, and there are plenty of days when quieter, slower, or subsurface baits are the better decision.
Best for covering water with a visible, audible topwater presentation.
The rotating molded tail creates consistent surface action without demanding advanced cadence.
Multiple sizes let anglers match the same lure concept to different species and forage.
Tradeoff: It is deliberately noisy and can be the wrong tool when fish are pressured, inactive, or unwilling to commit on top.
