If I can't find a box in time I'll be driving mates Land Rover troopie. Grabbing a couple of poppers tonight and some new line, 10-15kg should be fine yeah? what sort of rig setup would you suggest for beach casting?

bubba Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I have found the poppers on the BCF site, just need to get down to a store this arvo (damn gearboxes), trying to do it surreptitously so my mates don't cotton on to my secret weapon Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/359044-wa-salmon/page/2/#findComment-5770737 Share on other sites More sharing options...
t_revz Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 the hook through the popper isnt the strongest but with a bit of drag usually dont have any dramas. they are well worth the effort. be funny as if your the only one in your group who cleans up. heard of heaps caught at cheneys beach right next to cape rich so you should have plenty around ya.

t_revz Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 well last year couldnt have gone much worse. my first year in about 15,16 years i havent caught a Salmon. although after a mate lost one off his hook i jumped on it and caught it by hand heading down to Malimup this weekend for a look. friend saw salmon heads on the beach at Yeagurup at new years so must be a couple around. either way the beer will be cold have been using these poppers for the past 5 years with great success apart from the fact they are too weak sometimes. however i get about 19/20 on the popper and only 1/20 on gangs with mulies. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Fishing-Surf-Poppers-10-Pack-Green-Rig-Master-Tackle-/270898384028?pt=AU_Sport_Fishing_Tackle&hash=item3f12cd4c9c have just bought 6 blue and 6 pink of these new/bigger/stronger ones and they look awesome. good size and very strong hook compared. not available in green unfortunately. hopefully they will be just as good http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/6-X-New-Generation-Quality-Medium-Surf-Poppers-Fishing-Lure-New-Exciting-Colours-/110812431086?pt=AU_Sport_Fishing_Tackle&hash=item19ccef82ee Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/359044-wa-salmon/page/2/#findComment-6202158 Share on other sites More sharing options...

R DIRTY 3 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 you know i do Youll need 4wd, personal accomadation (Swag, tent, back of ute), fishing gear, 3 tanks of fuel, food for as many days as you plan to be there. And beer is sacred! You can use another mans fishing equiptment, you may even sneak a slice of bread or 2 and a piece of bacon....but on that beach, you touch another mans brew...you may not leave the beach. Just sayin. Ill keep you informed of dates once i know....but most likely, end March Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/359044-wa-salmon/page/2/#findComment-6213481 Share on other sites More sharing options...
