Sinking poppers, like Superstrikes and Atoms, will swim when retrieved slowly. Superstrikes are real easy to keep up top, so you can work them slow.

My favorite poppers are the ones that float vertically at rest, with the tail down. Gibbs and Hawg pencil poppers, and the 3-1/2 oz Polarises. You can throw a floating pencil popper upcurrent at a beaking fish and work it, whereas a sinking pencil popper, like a Gibbs Canal Special, won't ride to the top when thrown upcurrent. The 3-1/2 oz Polaris can be popped and then allowed to slide back. Great way to fish a plug at a first-light slack tide in the Ditch.
