Lobina Lures Rico ~ Legendary Topwater Popper

Many anglers regard the Rico as the very best popper of any in its size class. It's legendary.

The secret to its success is that the Rico has a perfectly tuned cupped face, creating a soft, gentle spit of water (more of a spit than a splash) that is the ideal fish attractor.

Endorsed by legendary pro Rick Clunn, the Rico is hand-crafted with a hand laid foil finish and hand-painted.

Add Gamakatsu hooks and a long, soft feather tail, and that make the Rico one of the most sought-after topwater poppers for bass.

Model: Lobina Lures Rico
Body Length: 2-3/8” (not counting feather tail)
Weight: 1/4 oz
Hooks: #6 Gamakatsu Bronze Hooks. Tail feather w/Mylar

Recommended gear: From 8 to 15 lb test braid or monofilament line on a slow/soft rod tip rod.

Pop the lure (with a downward twitch of the wrist) several times, pause briefly, and then pop again. Continue the pop/pause retrieve throughout the cast.
