Variable conditions, I stay with my selection :).  If could only ever own one  type of popper it would be Craftbait GT3 150 - the ultimate all round popper with "that" wiring system and stunning finishes.  And MH80H and Stella 18000 are no-brainers for me.

I agree with Mark  ;D

The only thing I would change would be to go with a Gamma 200 or 160H, however in variable conditions th GT3 is probably a lot more versatile. That said... we worked Gamma 200's pretty well in some horrible looking water at New Caledonia so...  :-\

By "brand new" do you mean that Carpenter has released an improved version of the CV 79\40 (which I would like to be in on), or are you simply talking about a non-used one?

I'm pretty sure I asked you to join me on a trip. Seeing you couldn't make it, your turn to come up with a suggestion
