Betts Trim Gim Chartreuse/Black Size 10

The Betts Trim Gim Chartreuse/Black Size 10 is a topwater popper built to mimic struggling prey and trigger aggressive strikes from bass, pike, and other surface-feeding gamefish. This fly features a bullet-shaped body that cuts through the water cleanly, paired with rubber legs that create realistic movement and vibration on the retrieve. The chartreuse and black color combination offers high visibility in various light conditions while suggesting natural baitfish silhouettes—a proven pattern for sight-fishing and low-light periods when predators hunt near the surface.

Constructed with a cork body cemented directly onto a Mustad hook, the Trim Gim delivers the durability and hook reliability you expect from quality fly-tying craftsmanship. The cork floats reliably and resists water-logging through extended sessions, so you can focus on working the fly and reading strikes rather than worrying about it sinking. At size 10, this popper sits in the sweet spot for most freshwater applications—small enough for clear-water presentations but substantial enough to generate the commotion that brings fish to the surface.

Whether you're targeting bass in a lake, pike in slow current, or experimenting with topwater techniques on a new river, the Trim Gim rewards aggressive, rhythmic stripping that makes those rubber legs dance. It's the kind of pattern that builds confidence because you can see the take coming—and that visual hunt is part of what makes popper fishing so addictive.
