Popper

[AD97]

Hey guys.

Been a while since I have posted a topic. ha ha. I have recently ordered some Halco Roosta poppers and a Laser pro 120 DD from WaklersKiller.

I will be using these mainly in the Eastern Cape- Port Alfred/Kenton/Cannon Rocks area and the lower South Coast of Natal.

I would like to know what I can expect on popper besides kingfish and couta. I bought a Haymaker to cast into the deep blue and a smaller popper for dropshot and estuary use. The colour of the poppers is blue and they have like a sardine pattern on them.

Leeries, Springer, Rock Salmon will all hit poppers in the Natal Estuaries, as well as the odd Perch too...

Shad love a popper in the right conditions too, so they are a definte possibilty...

AD if u come to Kzn at the right time u can target Garick and use those poper's in the famous Natal sardine run, in the run u can get any predatory fish frm deep water point's and frm the beach....

I summer i could take u to a place where u will hook in to some bus Kingy's but landing them is another story (We tend to lose alot of poper's to them)...

Thanks for the help guys. JJ I hope I can take you up on that offer sometime.

Yip, ive seen it first hand in Kenton... That was the first time I ever saw anyone fishing with any halco products... There were 2 guys fishing at night at a restaurant, the one guy was using a blue roosta and the other guy a red and white Halco sorcerer... The guy using the roosta pulled out 3 kob in about 15 minutes all between (Estimate) 40 and 60 cm... The other guy using the sorcere only managed a shad and a smallish Kob!

Also have spoken to a few people in the knysna area where they catch Kob on poppers too!

It all depends on the make.
