Give y'all a little secret for still waters, tubing for trout, bass etc, those days when the fish are down deep over the weed beds.

Fast sink line, leaders longer than the weedbeds are tall

Cast out let the line sink to the bottom, popper will be riding higher than the weed.
Strip slow, figure 8 etc, popper will pull down and float up on the pause, strip strike on pressure, but you will probably get yanks.

Same principle as the lethal Booby fly.

Little panfish poppers etc work extremely well.

Now shhh don't let the secret out

Cheers
Steve
