The Bluewater Banger series of big-game, offshore popper flies are just perfect for sailfish, marlin, tunas, and even bruiser inshore stuff like Giant Trevally and big Roosterfish. This is an ideal fly to use on teased-up fish, as it is constructed to look just like the teasers that are used to do this. Classic tube style design allows the angler to rig with preferred hook styles. These bluewater popper flies are approximately 7 inches long (about 17.5 cm). Diameter of the popper head at the widest point is 1 inch (2.5 cm). These big popper flies are top quality, and stunningly beautiful, with a fantastic glitter & scale paint job, epoxy finish for durability, and oversize reflective eye. There's even an integrated rattle to attract fish by sound! Here are more photos; of the Blue/White, and the Chartreuse fly. See below for rigging suggestions, etc.

This fly can be rigged nicely with 60, 80, or 100# test shock leader and 4/0, 5/0, or 6/0 hooks. Rigid tube through the center of the popper has a length of flexible tubing hidden inside the fly at the rear of the hard tube, into which the hook eye can be inserted. This is the standard setup for big game popper flies. We like 80# fluorocarbon with the Gamakatsu SL12 or the Gamakatsu Octopus hook as the ideal rigging for this fly - these hooks can be seen in our tying materials catalog. Heavy monofilament and flurocarbon shock leader can be found in our "Fly Shop" pages.
Note: All of the Saltwater Flies that we sell are handcrafted items - some small variations in size, color, or shape from the flies pictured here are possible. We guarantee your satisfaction with any fly purchased from us - if any fly you order from us does not meet your expectations, you may return it (unfished!) for a full refund.
