Rebel Lures Crickhopper Cricket/Grasshopper Crankbait Fishing Lure, 1 1/2 Inch, 1/4 Ounce

I recently picked up the Rebel Lures Crickhopper Cricket/Grasshopper Crankbait, and it's been a pleasant surprise. I'm not a pro angler or anything—just like to fish on weekends. This lure looks just like a real grasshopper, and the fish in my local pond seem to love it.It's easy to cast and has a nice action in the water. I've caught a few bass and even some panfish with it. The size is just right at 1 1/2 inches and 1/4 ounce—not too big or too small.If you're looking for a fun lure to add to your tackle box without breaking the bank, I'd recommend giving this one a try!

I don’t typically write Amazon reviews, but this lure warrants my support. This is my go-to lure for ultralight fishing in the summer months. I am lucky enough to live near a limestone spring-fed creek in PA that is teeming with wild brown trout. Almost all of my catches I owe to the crick hopper. I have also caught large and smallmouth bass out of ponds and native PA brook trout out of small mountain streams. This lure does it all. I have had the most success with the summer hopper and sunburst colors. Most of my catches have relied on this lure’s excellent subsurface action with a steady slow retrieve, but you can also fish it topwater with light twitches. I typically replace the trebles with #8 inline single hooks. You might lose an extra fish or two, but you get a much easier release on the fish you catch, which is less harmful for the fish. I make sure I am always stocked up with several of these before any fishing outing.

These are incredible top water lures, for both pan-fish, like perch and bluegills, and bass. Firetiger seems to be a universal pattern they like.

These work great at a local lake in late summer. Only had one , me and my son argued over it. Now I gave him my smaller one and I'm keeping this one.

Only jig I would use. I hv caught hundreds of fish up to 6 lbs. used nothing but this. Almost always out fished others with me. Goes in shallow deep weed waters. Fished with this for at least 17 years. Always brought the yellow

I've caught more fish on this lure than any other lure I've used. Mostly bluegills and sunnies but I've caught a few smallmouth bass and perch on it, too. Vibrant and the back end wiggles a lot depending on how fast you're reeling.

From the moment I cast this one (summer hopper) into the water the fish are just going nuts over it. Fish like to eat bugs and things that fall from trees or docks. If there's a bream or small bass with a few feet of where this thing his the water BOOM I've got a fish hooked. The very first time I cast it I caught a Bluegill that was just over 2 1/4 pounds along a dock. Granted all the others I've caught have been nothing like that monster but when I'm ultra light fishing under trees and along docks the thing catches fish like crazy. I got several others in the lineup and only the brownish crayfish has the same appeal .I can't recommend this thing enough at its ability to mimic a bug that just fell in the water and is in "oh crap what do I do now? Let me trying swimming to shore, no maybe turn around, no maybe......" mode. Most times within a couple of feet of where it hit I'm working the drag and reeling in the next one if there's one there.The hooks are very sharp, making it better on the fish and easier to remove.I'm bank fishing in stained water ponds using an Ugly Stik 5' ultra light with Lews Laser Lite spinning reel and 6# mono line.This lure is just plain fun to use and, for me, catches fish no matter the time of day . I can cast it short, long , slingshot or skip and they all get results.Edit: Caught numbers 9 (a bluegill) and 10 (1.5 pound bass) on this one yesterday . My granddaughter (6) caught her first fish ever on a Summer Hopper yesterday as well . My youngest daughter (15) has caught several bluegill and smaller bass with her summer hopper as well .

Can't wait to try it out. Detailed and well made
