The Savage Gear Panic Pencil Popper 3261 is built for explosive surface action and long-distance casting. Its rear rattle doubles as a weight-transfer system, delivering loud sound while helping the plug punch through strong winds. A unique stepped-hull design creates a bubbling trail that mimics feeding activity, while the erratic pencil action draws aggressive strikes from powerful saltwater predators. Reinforced with thru-wire construction, triple split rings, and 4X strong hooks, this lure is made to withstand the toughest battles offshore.
