Experiment: Tying feathers for my Pintails....

in 2008 RPBIC, i used GT pop popper to entice sailfish with feathers tied to a single hook at the back off the popper. The sail took the bait violently, leaving me wondering...is it due to the popper or the feather???
After some research, i notice, sailfish likes the popper sound and the feather...replicates helpless bird, stranded on top of water....

just experiment: tying white, green and red saddle and marabou feather on single 1/0, 3/0 hooks for pintail 35gm and pintail tune........

Pekan: 5th Jan 2010

This monsoon season gave 3-4m high waves to the east coast. Suddenly last sunday got a call from Azhar MJ - "Wan come, the wind had died down, come for ebek fiesta". Me and Atuk rush to Pekan on monday nite. We reached at 6am and meet up with Stefan and his friend.
