Owatatsumi Poppers Non-Delivery
Chris Leong:
The poppers are not made in china for sure. The owner/manufacturer happen to be a close friend of mine and I have heard from him with regards to the German guy, Christian, who was distributing the poppers in Europe. He is currently back at the factory with limited Internet access. I will relay to him about this and to come out and clarify the issues surrounding that Christian.
I am very sure, all orders originating back to him is fulfilled. That could not be said of the German guy.
Brandon Khoo:
Chris, I think we would all be interested in some clarity around the origin of these lures. Christian Seidl was on the forum some time back claiming these lures were manufactured in Germany by his company. If that is not the case, we will take a dim view on this.

I cant wait for the response to this, I have brought these poppers from Christian Seidl myself, unfortunately these poppers are not made in Germany as Christian states they are, I doubt these poppers can be brought from him now after all the problems I have had when buying these in the past from him. It was very interesting when I found out who makes Owatatsumi poppers.
I haven't tested these myself but I did hear of some guys that used them and they said they were a very good popper for the price.
At the end of the day it doesn't matter where they are made does it as long as they swim.
Chris Leong:
Hi Guys,
As much as i could, im trying to contact my pal as this is a very bad rep cause by Christian to the poppers. Christian was never the owner or the manufacturer of the poppers as far as i know. There seems to be an issue with Christian but i believe my pal have moved on with it.
Nevertheless, the poppers are still in production and a tackle shop in Singapore is the sole distributor of it. They do make online orders if interested. Meanwhile, i believe a new proto of the poppers are in the pipeline and after seeing the blanks of it, i am very excited.
Scott, since my pal have not have access to this post, let me apologize on his behalf for the non delivery of the poppers from that German guy. Im sure that guy have nothing to do with the integrity of the company producing the poppers. Drop me a pm, and i see what i can do about rectifying it. I believe what ever happened behind the scene with that Christian should not have any bearing on the anglers who is interested in the Owas poppers.
Andrew Cox:
It would be great to hear how these poppers swim from someone, I have a few sitting here and they are a nice looking popper with a great colour range for us fussy fisherman to decide from. I will take one down the road to the lake tomorrow in fact and see how it goes.
