Klures Monster Poppers

Nothing in the world of fishing can top the excitement of having a monster fish come shooting up to the surface and smashing your lure.  Poppers are a great lure while topwater fishing.  Monster species such as Giant Trevally and Golden Dorado are often landed with topwater lures.  For Giant Trevally, a "popping" technique is the way to go while speed reeling is the most common technique to land giant Golden Dorado.

Kermett Adams, of www.klures.com has been experimenting with variations of monster poppers which can stand up to the lure busting strikes exhibited by these brutes.  He has varied the mouth cup design to give the "pop" fisherman want.  Kermett has built a few skipjack poppers with and without cup weights on the rear of the lure.  Without the cup weight the popper tends to zig zag a few inches below the surface on rapid retrieves.  This is perfect for fooling golden dorado. 

When the cup weight is added the lure will now stay on the surface during rapid retrieves which again will fool golden dorado.  So in a sense he has designed 2 different lures both of which are a must for the giant golden dorado of La Zona.  For Giant Trevally one likes a huge splashing type popper so either model would work fine.  Kermett can be contacted here on facebook. He can paint the lure and construct it to your design.  So before you head out for monster species such as GTs and Golden Dorado make sure you consider topwater poppers and contact Kermett Adams.
