I purchased the bright orange Grand Slam Popper to use from the Surfside jetty. Wind was pretty strong both days I used the poppers making it difficult to see them in the waves. I think these would be great just about any place on calm days, or in protected areas where the surface water isn't being churned by the wind. I'll probably buy some with a bigger vertical profile when top water action is reported at the jetties. BTW, it was easy to get a good chugging action by dropping my rod tip and giving a smooth pull. 3.5 stars.
