Do crappie like poppers?

Greetings all, I hope you are well.

When I was a kid, I tied a lot of flies and poppers. My uncle is a somewhat famous fly tyer, and he got me started at a very young age.

Yesterday, I found my tying box, so I decided to make up some quick ties. Something I learned many years ago is that they don't have to be pretty to catch. A bit rough, made to be used and lost, but something the fish should eat:



What I made are some general fuzzy patterns, a couple of foam heads and a couple of cork "Hop and Pops". They are similar to a typical bluegill popper, but the heads aren't cupped, but are angled forward. So, if you twitch it, it pops like normal, but if you pull it a little further, it will hop out of the water and kind of skip, if you strip it in at the right speed.

I took it to the pond and did a roll cast under a tree, and POW! Then the dogs leaped in the water, trying to save my lure from the fish. I avoided hooking the dogs and called it a successful test.

Here is a pic showing the angled face of the lure:




I've made these in the past and the fish go nuts trying to catch them. They either think it's a little frog or a grasshopper, but whatever it looks like, you end up with breaking fish in the lake.

But now, here is my question:
Do crappie surface feed? I don't think I've ever caught one on a popper. Curious to hear your stories.
