They had some of his stuff in Saltwater Connection on Port Rd a couple of weeks ago when I was in there. Couldn't tell you if they had that model but they were on the back wall. Can't remember the guys name right now but he's been making them for years, we've had quite a few of his poppers. I found a small battered green one in the shed a while back which must've caught dozens of kings and kahawai. ------------- I love catching fish. But fishing isn't always about catching. |
