One more decoy in the family
You probably already know the Asturia or the Patchinko, which are both references in the stickbait family for bass fishing, but not only. The Xorus family is growing this year with the Popchinko.
At first sight the resemblance is obvious with its big brother the Patchinko. This popper (floating) measures 140 mm for 33 grams. It is available in 10 colors, from natural to flashy. It is equipped with two triple hooks, a DECOY TS 21 n°2 in ventral and DECOY YS 21 n°2 in tail.
The majority of the weight is located at the rear of the lure. A lower center of gravity which gives it an important stability. This will allow you to cast it at a great distance and to use it in oily as well as in rough seas. A lure that knows how to adapt to the conditions encountered.
Amaze the fish
During the break, the Popchinko will stand upright, very few poppers do this, enough to amaze the most wary fish. At the back, the lure is tapered, which allows it to be very stable on the water, but it also allows to make very large casts. An undeniable plus for anglers using lures from the shore.
Its integral frame will also allow you to fish for tuna on the hunt. This mix between a stickbait and a popper allows you to juggle between the different possible animations.
This is the popper I'm using right now on the few early season hunts. I animate it very quickly while popping and once it gets close to the heart of the hunt, I do a pretty pronounced "walking the dog". This allows me to have an aggressive and active lure in the right area for longer.
An interesting and easy to handle lure with an all purpose size to fish for multiple predators.
