Handmade Popper By Edi Leadhunter

by eddie on Nov.22, 2009, under

Right now i'm more enthusiast in popping than jigging. Since my last 3 fishing trip, I didn't get any single hook up on jigs but always on a popper. Maybe my jigging skill getting rusted or i don't know how to jigging anymore hahaha. On my last trip to Port Dickson for light jigging i get a bite by a black tip shark (less than 10kg i think) but using only my PE2-4 Expert Graphite Custom rod & 70gram Budi Popper, I cannot strike and set up the hook properly. But surprising a black tip shark also getting keen to a popper. Enough of that.. I want to introduce to all my blog reader to a new handmade popper.

This popper was made by Edi Leadhunter. He is quite well-known in surfcast fishing. Also a Malaysian record holder distance surfcasting. Even thou he not into popping but his handmade popper is quite good and the finishing is equal to well know popper. He used mahogany & shorea wood. A nice hardwood (I like to use a wood popper than a plastic). Although is not fully tested yet but i'm looking forward to use this popper on my coming trip with my new custom popping rod. InsyaAllah if i can afford the flight ticket and etc... Hehehehe

Some popper for sample

But I already booked this long black/gold popper, the green/yellow small popper & red/gold from the picture above ^_^

I will update more when the Edi leadhunter finished making his popper. Even thou not fully finished a lot of people already asking me about this popper when i post this picture in Kakipancing.Net forum.
