www.reefari.com Here’s a few poppers which we recommend giving a try for Giant trevally, not all by or means and we have a few more up our sleeves which will feature down the track, In this video check out the Halco Rooster Poppers, Rover 230 Stickbaits, Captiva Poppers and recommend the use of heavy duty hooks and split rings. Please comment with your favourite poppers and stickbaits, Will review a few more soon, with each popper, stickbaits having different actions and worked differently. The new river2Sea Doggie stickbaits look excellent and will be trying them out as well. Please subscribe for more great fishing action tips and news. Cheers Greg Also more great Giant Trevally action and info at our website below and well worth checking out, http

Good popper, good hooks, but lousy paint for sure, one GT can make a mess. They were $10 at tackleworld, so got a few and doesn’t matter if you lose them, losses can be high. Don’t think they sell them anymore and probably for that reason,

those captive lures are total shockers the entire paint comes off from the hooks after less than 10 casts

Good one, We off again on another Hardline trip, and have got a good range of River 2 Sea poppers to give a go, chasing GT’s, so will post some more videos of this trip,

Definately the bigger the cup, the harder the work, have found the halco’s roosta poppers pretty easy to work, or like to run with a couple of people working stickbaits, and poppers. The stickbaits can fire ‘em up at times,

I would agree that the big haymakers make the biggest pop or bloop but have fished with them all day and they are hard work compared to other styles in my opinion. Still have the best action though.

Good fun for sure popper fishing, and Ningaloo and Exmouth would be great. Queenfish are good fun and plenty of aerial acrobats usually, Thanks for the comments,

Definately a good popper the Halco Roosta Popper, easy to work, especially if fishing all day, Good to get a salmon on one. We don’t get them up here, Work well on Queenfish, trevally, and the odd cod or coral trout,
