Yeah it is big, I originally wanted to chase tailor but it was to windy for them, I was surprised the pike was actually hitting it at that size to!

Is that a bubble pop? I find the bolt poppers from tackle world cheap and work bloody well there a 6 or 7cm popper.

I started on pike too anything on surface is so fun.

[UndersizeBreamKing]

Yeah mate thats them. picked couple up on special ages ago!

Baz, we can tell you're from NSW. You think that a ribbon fish is only good for eating. Here, the only thing to do with a ribbon fish is to keep it for bait (whole, dead or alive) for something better like a Mack. I've been catching them in the net lately for spaniard baits.

No mate just looking at the thing there is no way i would eat it... The one i caught i cut it up for bait & caught a Spottie on it..

Nothing wrong with catching a few pike when nothing else is playing ball. Better than catching nothing. Make a decent bait for a crab pot too.

[UndersizeBreamKing]

That's right! I had a ball watching them smashing it on the surface regardless!
Also feels good when everyone else is sitting around not catching a thing and my popper is getting hammere

[Snodger]

Well done mate. Have caught a few barra up north and bass at Boondooma on popper and its a blast.

[UndersizeBreamKing]

Can't wait to see barra/bass explode on the surface hey!
