Popper types for carpenter coral viper
April 03, 2012, 09:12:26 AM
Hey there guys i bought a CV a while back and probably wont use it for a while more because of where i live but i wont bother selling because i know one day itll come to good use on gt trips and kingy trips. Now my question is what poppers would suit this rod as iv been told mainly small cupped poppers to 150 grams are what you are looking for..? Any suggestions?

Cheers

Hey Marko, I would say the ideal poppers are things like Cubera 125, Seafrogs 120 to 135 - that size of popper.  The rod will handle larger, but those would be ideal in my book.

For stickbaits you can go much bigger.

All good thanks Marko. In amongst some bad weather, the fishing was very good here in March. Hopefully that will continue well into April.
