Title: R2S Lures
Post by: Kevin Hulse on May 19, 2012, 08:16:24 PM

Hi all,


As most of us have seen, River 2 Sea poppers have proven themselves in the field but I was wondering if anyone on here has given their stick baits (Rover, wide glide and doggie) a run and if so how did they perform?


Cheers

Kev

   Their good entry level stick baits, a lot more durable than their poppers.
I use the Doggie a fair bit, obviously not as good as some of the Japanese offerings but a hell of a lot cheaper when fishing the shallow reefs up here.

The 230 Rover has proved itself time and again on GT's & reefies. You could add a couple of those to your arsenal and bring them out on calm days.

Cheers guys, might give them a crack.

Kurt, what sort of sink rate does the doggie have?
