Popper by Strikepro get’s Hammered!! Giant Trevally Fishing
www.reefari.com A couple of strikepro poppers which came out the worse for wear after a tough day Giant Trevally fishing. Just shows you the power and strength of GT’s with massive teethmarks, straightened hooks and the wire pulled through the Strikepro Poppers. GT popper fishing is truly spectacular stuff and definately tuff on your fishing gear and terminal tackle. Quality pays and recommend the best you can afford. Giant trevally can’t help themselves with that bloop bloop action of a popper or stickbait being worked across the surface. This imitates a baitfish in distress, and very visual with GT’s coming up and smashing your lure. Look out for bait schools along the edge of the reef and work your poppers and stickbaits in these areas, GT’s usually aren’t far away. Great Stuff and awesome fun!!

VMC’s ……..what do you expect? Go the single hooks.
Hi, Recommend the owner hooks, alot stronger and have lost some good fish to the VMC’s, especially on the heavier braid,
cheers Greg
man must have been big travale iv only eva caught queen fish on popers lol and it wasnt really fishing. we were in booraloola in the NT and we were fishing the mouth of the river up there and all of a sudden the water started bubbleing man there were like 1000 queen fish on a frenzy i wasnt even poping it i had about 3m of line out dragging the popper through the water and getting smashed lol.
bit worse for wear…bit of an understatement id say Greg:P
Just goes to show the power and ferosity these XOS GTs have.
Cheers for the vid mate.
My best is a 9 kilo Queenfish on a Popper at Scawfell island on 3 kilo line, caught 6 fish that day and all quality. Jump heaps as well. Have fished Booraloola, had a 4 way hook up on Barra, trolling 4 lures at the river mouth, landed three all around the 5 – 6 kilo mark, years ago and still remember the Kaos,
cheers Greg
They copped a hammering alright. That’s some of the poppers we got to keep, Got a nice flowery cod on a popper the other day, so that video coming soon,
Cheers Greg
yer its good up there i got a 91cm barra it was 11kg in the ross river hear in townsville their great fish to catch =)
Awsome, I make those plugs custom, they work great!
Giant trevally love them poppers, good luck with our plugs
Cheers Greg
used the exact poppers before with big 11/0 singles on the back. it holds them well but does a bit of damage to the fish got some big barracuda off the beach and even a tarpon, plenty of big gt hits as well. I find that the wood can be a bit soft and those cuda teeth get embeded in them.
Worth upgrading to single hooks, will be using alot more singles in future. Some good toothmarks on this popper just from Giant Trevally, So Barracuda will also do some damage,
Cheers Greg
