Tackle & Techniques / Re: First popping rod

« Last post by Dan Hanon on May 07, 2023, 04:41:27 AM »

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?

I really can’t think of a compromise rig. We use as thin and sharp a hook as we can for sailfish whereas you need strength for GT.
