Tackle & Techniques / Re: First popping rod
« Last post by VadimNazarov on May 07, 2023, 05:12:09 AM »
 Thank you for your expert opinion, I was thinking about fcl 81 ext MH, but understood that it has the softer tip than H model, which should be better for poppers,I assumed that this rule also works for a shorter model.... UCB 78 extreme H, but from google I found that 78EXT H is the stickbait model and at the same moment I found this rod: 81 EXT MH -POP with description that this should work good with poppers., most likely it's just a different model than 81 EXT MH ?

I never had the line slapping issues discussed, and I watched my line during the casts.  I went to Oman for my first time last month.  For me, the FCL Labo UCB 81-H was a great "big" swimbait rod.  Casts great and handled the Bigfoot 220 well.  For poppers in the 150-160gm range, i used an FCL Labo UCB 711-H, and it worked great.  Used mostly Amegari Dzanga 230 50cup.

 I try to choose between 2 rods :  Ultimo 710H UG710H Swim Nano and UCB78EXT-H for Poppers 130-170gr. Want to pair it with 14000 Saltiga for Oman trip. As I understand, FCL rod is more universal than RF ? Line pe8. Which rod is more suitable?

We lost 2 sailfishes in a row (gt popper with single and triple hooks), next 20 casts we got more interest from sailfish side.... So I have the same question: what is the optimum hook size/shape/thickness I need to keep for such cases?
