Greg Burt:
The Captiva are an upgraded Gillies Popper, a little bit better paint job and a big upgrade of hardware from their std models, Jordan's thread was of the gillies stickbaits, cheap but work :-\ They are selling now at 1/3 the original price.

Ray,
I lost 3 River to sea Dumbells in the 150 Size. I busted River to sea.
1 captiva in Black, 2 Yo Zuri Pencil Poppers and 2 yo Zuri Stick baits.
All up Nine lures. But remember I'm fishing 60lb so Propably a little light on ;D
Andy Rowe:
Nice Catches Joe, the old dumb bells create plenty of splash for a relatively easy to work lure.
Barbed hooks?? ouch ??? good idea to crush them down, trebles do enough damage without the barbs.
Mat Selwyn:
great pics mate.
I like those captiva poppers, use them alot. I reckon the other colours are a bit easier to work than the black ones. All that epoxy makes em heavier and sit low in the water., cast further though. They were about 24 bucks last time I stocked up, I better get to the tackle shop and see if they are going that cheap up here will stock right up if they do. Speaking of black that big black trev looks mean as.
Stephen Polzin:
Nice going mate, sounds like you had a good time!
