As far as Whopper Plopper lure colors, LeBrun keeps it simple wherever he goes, throwing either black or white. âI like throwing it everywhere,â he said. âBut when you get up around Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, it just really seems to shine in this part of the country. I think black does better this time of year because itâs more of an imitation of those dark gizzard shad in that dirtier water, but who knows?â
It was all about fishing docks for LeBrun, primarily the backside of docks, under cables and beams connecting the docks to the bank. âI had a few keepers that were on just straight rock banks, but all the memorable bites and all the key fish were behind docks,â he said. âThis week they wanted it slow, just plop, plop, plop, plop, as slow as you could where it still plopped.â
