I remember Jimmy Houston use to walk Pop-R’s like a Spook too. For the money there is no Popper made that works as well as a Rebel Pop-R does. Smallmouth come up out of clear deep water like bullets for those things. You might be the one who showed him. I have to laugh when I hear others on fishing shows catch a big bass and say that’s a Bill Dance bass. There never was any small bass on any Bill Dance fishing show I ever watched. That is one reason watching your fishing shows a so fun to watch. God Bless.

The nostalgia! I remember being 12 waking up every Saturday morning just waiting to watch Bill..here I am at 32 grinning ear to ear haha..love it!

The Bill Dance intro is such a great nostalgic memory.

Bill is the “GOAT” of fishing. Been watching him since I was youngin!!!

I love using an original heddon lucky 13..my dad gave me one when I was 10yrs old in 1986..rip big dad see you sooner than later odds are

"Ooouuuu - he's got one"! I'm going fishing with Bill Dance today...🎶💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛

2:20 Whenever my grandfather hooked a bass he would always say, "That's a lively sucker." One time I said, "No grandpa, that's a Micropterus Salmoides." He had a puzzled look on face his the rest of the day.

Bill Dance is the man,you gotta love him!

Can’t get enough of Bill, don’t give it up!

I have been watching you for many many years on the television and still to this very day I am learning new techniques from you and Roland Martin you and Roland and Jimmy Houston y'all are the three main and favorite fisherman's that I have watched but mainly you and Roland Martin but over the course of many many years I have enjoyed each and I do have your Bill dance bloopers good video mini gears so thank you sir thank you very much for many many years of pleasure boat fishing

My dream as a kid was to go fishing with you... my dad and I watched you every weekend... I'm happy you left the part of the intro out where you hit your knee on a trailer hitch... i felt that ever time

I have an 1/8th of a Plano 3700 box dedicated to Pop-R's. I wouldn't go topwater fishing without them, or my Zara Spooks! Thanks for introducing them to me years back Bill, and thanks for another great episode!

Great popper for cheap, and anyone that enjoys more ultralight type stuff can try the little four pack of Rebel lures that the big mart carries for like $10. That cricket and that Pop-R are worth every penny alone.

Great input, but you know what's even better? Your name. Bass Nazi, lmao.

Thanks Bill for all the lures you made me buy. love you BILL THE MAN DANCE!!!

The pop-r is deadly! But the hopper popper will catch dang near anything! You taught me that too Bill. Thanks for another great episode 👍

Well thank you mr. Dance for an exciting video on the pop r put out by rebel I have I think I've got that one in my box and I bought lures over the years and I've lost lures over the years but I I love to watch a bass explode the surface after allure there is nothing more thrilling than watching a bass just bust the top of the water thank you for an exceptional video

I caught my PB on that exact same Pop-R. Hard to beat them. Good to see you still going at it Bill.

Overall performance and price considerations for poppers: Obtained from a few thousand hours of tossing poppers myself. #1 Pop-R & other Rebel lures (especially the 3" popper model). #2 Yo-Zuri poppers and spooks. #3 Megabass poppers and spooks. #1 (15lb) SPRO Prime snap works on all the poppers, short 18"-9ft. fluoro 8lb-10lb test. For those that don't want to waste time tying knots to quickly change out colors/lengths. The SPRO model is the one that DOES NOT look like a paper clip equal on both ends, it's the one that's slightly narrow on the line end making it easy to slip onto deep mouthed poppers/spooks.

I get so nervous when you grab those fish lol. You the 🐐!!

Great video! Love my pop-r for largemouth bass and peacock bass! Keep up the great work Mr. Dance!

I tore up some bass with the pop-r after I watched this episode I was amazed with the performance

Great video

Pop R !!! One of my Favorite !!!

learned about this lure from this vid, and had so much success thanks bill!!

I LOVE YOU BILL!!!!!

Dang Ball you are really working that popper! I actually used to didn't like them but I'm thinking about giving that Pop R try because it's a shed color scheme. Great video as always! Keep on getting down man!

I went fishin with Bill Dance today!!

Bill Dance you sir are one of the greatest anglers I've ever known. Any topwater tips for muddy water?

That was a great video I like it

This popper is my go to popper and its killer in every lake ive fished. One of the best top water baits their is.

The Pop R is absolutely a favorite! But...I also still have the Bill Dance signature edition Excalibur top water lure, that rattles! It's a fish magnet also!

I also like the Chug Bug.ive caught a few nice bass off of it this year

Awesome topwater

I'm going dancing with Bill Fish today 😁😁

Iv been using my small rebel crawfish lure in the creeks been catching tons of fish

The rebel pop-r is my favorite topwater lure

And that is how its done.

mr Bill please make another video on fall buzzbait , thanks for all your yrs and videos

I also try the tiny torpedo and the dalton special

Um abraço do Brasil

My buddy just got A whopper ploper

That's the same popper I have

🎣

I got the P60G1 kinda sorta looks like yours does...

Very curious to know if you use stock hooks when fishing the Pop-R, Bill.

Can we get some good creek fishing videos? Just a suggestion!

I'm interested in the rod's action and power. I have a M Lightning Rod I use with most topwaters, but the standard Pop-R is just a tad too light for it. This rod is a bit too heavy and stiff to be very accurate with this lure. I have a M spinning combo that's good for the bait, but I'm a lot less accurate wit spinning.

If the fish won’t bite anything else get out a rebel lure first 3 cast get a fish

Have you ever used a whopper plopper?

I think this popper catches bigger fish in my opinion. Ive used whopper plop and only caught 2 decent bass the popper has consistently landed me big fish.

While some of what you say may be true it doesn't change the fact that his show got tons of kids hooked on fishing and allowed a lot of us to get our fix when we weren't able to go out. You can't fake being the pioneer of fishing shows.
