hello
I am fisherman from new caledonia in south west pacific ocean
(sorry for my english)
great pictures and big fishes
i hope to have such big tunas

but please, when you go fishing for catch and release, please, use barless trebles
trebles are really mad to release fishes without enjuries
thanks

Welcome from the other NC....North Carolina

Glen, this post leads me to ask if you have used the Nomad style of rigging yet?

Head Rigged Poppers

Popper rigging

Single v Treble

Also...their Ulua stickbaits look awesome Ulua

Gman, that was such a great read. I studied your jigging thread and learned a lot from that. We're heading to PV April 19th for 5 days of fishing and will be trying both styles (jigging and poppers). We got into the tuna big time last year throwing poppers but not as pro as you demonstrate. I hope you really know how much your time in posting that is appreciated. I hope to post some good pics when we return. Thanks! Don

Hey gmann, nice thread! I also read the one on jigging and it is really complete! Ive been jigging for almost 2 years but i always go jigging beside oil platforms, Ive tried few times where u fish red snapper (sorry because i don't really know how to say it I'm from Mexico, i live nearby the Gulf of Mexico) and never had really great results, but i think because ive never tried it enough. But well the other thing i wanted to know is how deep do you pop fishing to get red snappers, grouppers, etc. It seems to be really effective and impressive! So may you tell me how deep it has to be so it may work or does it don't matter?
