This Japanese innovation could change topwater fishing as you know it (feat. Handsome Lures)

- The TailBop from Handsome Lures could be the best topwater innovation to hit the U.S. bass fishing market in some time. While it looks like a high-end Rat-L-Trap, this Japanese custom lure is actually a topwater that fishes like a diving Pop-R. The secret is a metal cone situated at the rear of the lure that makes a subtle popping sound. Bass and bass fishermen alike have never seen a topwater lure quite like this, and we can't wait to get the TailBop out on the lake soon!

This is just great. From a year or so ago in your first video on Japanese lures, where you were featured in the TOPTOU magazine, I've been a big fan of that country's lure creators and their sensibility and style. Follow a bunch of them on Instagram and have really enjoyed the things they do over there. Some of the baits they are putting out just look insane! You're right, they are little works of art. I think the Japanese are largely responsible for the bait-making renaissance going on right now, including in America. Their attention to detail and the level of quality is unparalleled. I have to be careful though, the prices aren't on the lower side and if I get hooked on collecting Japanese lures I'll go broke in a big hurry! Use heavy line and tie good knots when you throw those beauties!
Seems like those old school type of lures are popular in Japan there is a few different bait makers that make baits like that. Like Tsunami Lures which has a very similar style of baits and look.
We’ve got a Tsunami Lures video in the works…
@@RetroBassin sweet those are very interesting baits his frogs are pretty sweet. That slappyhappy shad topwater is a very cool bait almost looks like an old creek chub with some newer additions to the bait and look.
We’ve got to see those in action on the water. Especially that odd lipless topwater.
It’s coming!
wow is all i can say this guys lures will be the collectors prize we will see in years to come. They are works of art. I went to his page and I think every lure was sold out except the pop slider. Great find and great video. You will have to give us a video fishing these things. I wanna see how that Tailbop looks in water. Keep em coming.
Innovative and beautiful. Would love to see that tail popper in action.
It’s wild!
Box of Handsome Lures.....check! Definitely see his Heddon influences!
The Japanese take tremendous pride in building tackle.They have also bought up and collected some of the finest American collections of vintage Abu and Heddon that you could have never imagined existed.Great video!
Thanks for tuning in, David! Glad folks are enjoying this little mini series.
Beautiful beautiful fishing lures 🎣👍🏼 I love them my dream is to go visit Tokyo Japan and visit some of their takel shop 🎣👍🏼
Many Thanks for sharing, I am sold! Beautiful craftsman ship and quality. Great video as always!
I'd love to know how those upward facing double hooks perform in terms of hook-up ratio, as compared with trebbles, or having the double the other way up. Looks good and weedless, but does weedless = fishless?
17 grams is almost 1\8 of an Oz over 1/2 oz. 1/2 oz is 14 grams.
Drugs, where so man Americans learn the metric system. :)
17 grams is a half ounce plus 3 grams.
28 equals an ounce.
Those double hooks are cool, they should stick fish but catch less snags than trebles. Interesting lures, thanks for showing us.
Those are too beautiful to tie on. I wonder if they are California approved? That paint job, though beautiful, looks detrimental to the environment. 😆
That was very cool buddy! Thanks for sharing!
Sweet baits!! Thanks for sharing, going to have to check handsome lures out.
That’s a great lure! Different is always good
Damn the sun must be REALLY BRIGHT in you studio!
Looks like he worked for Heddon.
Beautiful lures....
Once you walk into a Japanese tackle shop. You will never want to leave.
Glorious baits!! I definitely have to get some
Looks like a thumb tack some shuved in the back. Pretty cool idea
Do you know what a henlin lure is I have a few and Wonder if I can send you one
The tail of the "tail bop" looks like an upholstery tac.
It's cool to see lures from around the World!!
Great video ++
Very Interesting episode.
Gotta see footage of the tail bop on the water!
I'd be scared to fish and loose those lol
Those are some gorgeous baits! You have to love the amount of craftsmanship that was involved. I will definitely be looking into those!
They look even more amazing in person!
So many baits, so little time
Those looks great, but I can't help thinking all of those hooks and blades close together are going to snag together an awful lot when you actually try to fish with them.
I have fished with them quite a bit, and believe it or not, they don’t!
That's what I call a piece of art, I don't know you but I will not fish those lures
You do know me haha
28.35 grahams = 1 oz.
25.4 mm = 1 oz.
Try to save everyone some time. Had to look it up myself as soon as Retro started with the popper. Love the videos man, awesome stuff!!!
I’ll be on the water tomorrow with my 1994 Fishing Buddy III portable fish finder fishing it old school!
25.4mm = 1 INCH.
Lol
Can't wait to see the tail bop lure in action.
I have thrown it a few times and believe it or not, it’s a subtle as a Teeny Pop-R.
yeah japanese edion start
Gonna spread it out a bit, but plenty of Japanese content coming!
Love me some Japan artwork in form of a lure! I need to add more to our overseas lures! Sweet breakdown!
You and me both, D!

They are amazing!
That yellow and blue popper, should kill them, with tiny pops and pauses!!
