Rob in case you are unaware SS plugs:

with green eyes float
with red eyes they are pre loaded

Yup- I got a floating so it should be green eyes. ( I ordered it online) in the meantime I grabbed a little Creek Chub popper from a local bait store and it is a sinking popper. Not sure why poppers are made to sink, kind of defeats the purpose. But if you pop it quick it stays on top.

Most popular by far is SS popper 2 3/8 sinker out sells the floaters 10 to 1 . casts great and if you reel it slow it swims like a metal lip. They sink because you need the weight to cast far. When it comes to SS most shop don't stock the floaters

SS is a great workhorse plug. You can catch small blues to 40lb bass with that plug. Works great out of the bag. If larger fish are around you can upgrade the hooks and splits but they can take a lot of abuse as is. One of my fall favorites.

I always use the weighted ones, 2 3/8 oz my favorite... A frieking ROCKET
I do change the hooks immediately, but the new ones are coming with VMCs now.
Surprisingly I don't get a lot of Blues on them over the years, more bass than blues on them.
This bass was my first of the 2010 fall run (late Sept.).
