Fisherman poppers
March 26, 2008, 02:45:01 AM
Just got a few of these delivered. Look so good I could almost eat them myself! They've got split rings on them already, what's the form, do you need to upgrade them?

They look pretty small...

Cheers guys

Anglers Proshop. Got paranoid as I'm off to Musandam and all I had were GT Manias in 125g size. I'm told with 130lb Tufline you need something heavier to get some distance so i got 2 x 170g S Pop and 1 x 170g Big Mouth. Oh and also two Crazy Pen 50's cos they look nice  ;D

The Fisherman split rings do not need to be upgraded. They are one of the very few you don't toss.

Adhek poppers and stickbaits also come with split rings - Varivas 400lb in their case which are aout the strongest split rings you can buy.

Cheers Brandon. Although I really like the colours on these they're nowhere near as good as the finish on the two craftbait stickbaits I got from Neil..

Looking forward to getting them chewed.

no comparison in the finish between Fisherman and Craftbait. Craftbait is the industry standard these days in finish. Fisherman have some good colour schemes but the finish doesn't last very well. Check it out after a couple of fish!
