Hi,

Why is it called "...swim..."?
Is it a stickbait/swimbait/... version? Ripplefisher has a table with suitable cup sizes of poppers for their (popping) rods, which might be helpful.

I think for (yellowfin)tuna they fish poppers there. For GTs it's poppers and stickbaits.

FCL Labo 710 should be the ultimate Popping rod(pe10 line and up to 300gr test). Ripplefisher 711 is the different rod, I don't know if they use same blanks.
