Yes, best to get a couple of these and tie them to the droppers on your paternoster rig: http://www.rayannes.com.au/online-store ... po-170-69/
$69 each?!
Do you want to catch a fish or not?
So if I pay $140 I have a high chance of catching good size Salmon?
Im sure your catch rate will increase by 5 or 10% with the use of lures over $100 lol
If you cant catch salmon with bait or surf poppers or salmon metal lures your chances are low buy changing to expensive lures amd probably is a waist of money
Is this the correct one?

Is that the correct popper, or should I get a surf popper?

FMD!! Talk about a laugh. Mate walk down a beach with a metal flicking it out as you go. Almost can’t not catch a salmon. I hear surf poppers work best when used with a fly rod.

That one looks fine. I have caught many with the red one. Lost the bait on the other hook but many times caught the fish on the popper.

So you think forget using the surf popper? Just use the metal lure? What about using bait?

Should I do a full fishing session with metal lure reeling or alternate between bait and lures?
