Hi Chris,
New to GT fishing and into my first trip to South Oman. I'll have carpenter The Blue Lagoon 80/40 as my PE8 stickbait rod. As for popping rod, I shortlisted the mentioned ripple fishers, with carpenter Monster Hunter 80H and Hummerhead Faube 77h.
Since ripple fisher said it can cast from C cup to I cup, then it's my only popping rod for my first trip and I can use it for different poppers, not only large face.
So the advise is to go with RF 79 or 80 ?
