Carpenter aren't a new rage product - they're one of the oldest and most established brands of GT fishing equipment.

Travis Heaps:
Kiel didn't say new rage - just rage.  I think its fair to say they are enjoying somewhat of a renaissance rage at the moment.

Andrew Poulos:
and expensive if you get reefed regurlarly...

Gareth Branicki:
Kiel  where i fish lbg height not an issue however  the lbg who fish the rock ledges down south i.e aroudn sydney and places south do use popper but this is done for kingfish which they get and we dont their ledges are quite high . seems the kings love poppers cuberas seem to be the most popular seen some great pics on anothor forum of kings on poppers one included a 30 kg kingfish caught of a rocklegde using a cubera cant rember if it was the 125 gr or 150 but think it was the smaller. so preety certain they handle height ok

As Travis pointed out, i didn't say they were new. (I knew someone would read that wrong) :P However, they are new to ME. Hear in the caribbean we hardly ever use lures of any kind. We mostly still use hand lines from the rocks and surf, so to be casting a 3/4 oz piece of wood into the sea to catch fish would be quite the head turner here. It's only recently i've come to know of carpenter products and of popper casting period! But from what i've read and seen so far carpenter products seem to be highly rated, and i dont mind spending a little extra for a quality, proven product!
