First Salmon!
Submitted by troopie87 on Sat, 2010-05-29 12:30
headed up just north of two rocks the smornin with just lures. was using soft plastics for a while getting lots of bites and all my plastics chomped in half. thought i'd try a popper so i put on a halco roosta and within about 10 mins got my first salmon!! it was awsome fun on my little penn, jumping all over the place, so im pretty stoked

Good onya troopie!
Hope I can come on here one day with a big dhuie and tell everyone it's a good snapper! Well done, mate...poppering is the best way to get tailor of ANY size IMO and even better when it's a beauty like that one!

Sherbs and I were up that way Saturday morning and landed a few solid greenbacks, all over 45 and the biggest about 53 cm (on a richter plug).
