Title: roosta poppers and dumbell pop and recommended popper
Post by: NathanMcNiece on May 31, 2009, 04:54:02 PM

hey guys just wondering what size trebles you would out on both halco rooster 135's and dumbell pop 150's. Also wondering the what you think would be the best popper to take to the whitsundays, I will be using a twinpower 10000fc with a t curve bluewater spin 10-15kg with 50lb braid so the rod must be capable of casting this lure easily.

Don't think you'll have any probs with casting the lures mentioned with your setup. Owner 1/0 ST56's or 2/0 ST66's would be the pick for me.

Halco 135's have been doing the trick.. Been getting a few good GT's on them.
