144 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other fishing gear and tackle we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
Big poppers earn their spot in a tackle box on days when fish are keyed up and want a lure that chugs and splashes on the surface, and the THKFISH set targets that scenario with three large, plastic-bodied poppers finished in a blue, red and green color mix for $27.99.
Each lure in the set of three carries a treble hook, the same hook style used on the Rebel F7356 and both Heddon lures in this comparison, and the total set weighs 0.2 kilograms, about 7 ounces, split across the three large bodies. The 4.6 star rating across 144 reviews is a strong, well-supported score, second only to the Heddon X9225BON's 1,600 reviews and Heddon XO360BB's 1,200 reviews among the comparison group, and it far outpaces the Rapala Claptail 110's 40-review sample.
Where the picture turns is recent demand. The listing shows this set at 0+ bought in the past month, while the Rebel F7356 and both Heddon lures, plus every other lure in this comparison, show 100 or more units bought in the same period. A 4.6 star, 144-review history says past buyers were satisfied, but the current 0+ figure suggests the listing is not moving right now, which is worth weighing against the $27.99 price, the highest among the lures reviewed here.
Pros
- 4.6 star average across 144 reviews, the second-largest review base in this comparison behind the top Heddon lures
- Three large poppers per set, more body size than the medium or compact lures compared here
- Treble hook matches the setup used on the Rebel F7356 and both Heddon lures
- 0.2 kilogram total weight gives each popper enough mass for long casts
- Multi-color set, blue, red and green, covers different water and light conditions in one purchase
Cons
- Bought 0+ in the past month, versus 100 or more for every other lure in this comparison
- At $27.99 it is the most expensive lure reviewed here, ahead of the $24.99 MHLURE0001 set
- Only 3 pieces for the price, fewer than the 5 to 8 piece packs at lower cost
- No target species listed, unlike every other lure in this comparison

Performance notes
At 0.2 kilograms, about 7 ounces, spread across three large bodies, each popper in this set carries real weight for long casts and a pronounced surface disturbance, which is the whole point of a popper style lure designed to chug and splash rather than glide quietly. The plastic construction keeps the set buoyant despite the larger size, and the treble hook setup matches the hook style used on the Rebel F7356 and both Heddon lures in this comparison, so hookup mechanics should feel familiar. The blue, red and green color mix gives three visually distinct finishes rather than one repeated color, useful for matching different water clarity or light conditions across a session. Large sizing and a heavier total weight point this set toward bigger water and larger target fish rather than finesse presentations on small ponds, though the listing does not specify which species it targets.
What buyers say
A 4.6 star average across 144 reviews is a strong, well-supported score, ranking behind only the Heddon lures' 1,200 and 1,600 review counts among the group compared here. That combination would normally suggest confident, sustained demand. The 0+ bought-in-the-past-month figure complicates that read, though, since every other lure in this comparison shows 100 or more units bought in the same period. Read together, the pattern suggests a lure with a genuinely solid track record that is, for whatever reason, not currently seeing the same purchase volume as its competitors, a gap worth noting for anyone weighing the $27.99 price against current buyer activity rather than historical reviews alone.
