The HEDORAH 75 is a GUNKI popper that casts accurately, floats flat and sits fairly low in the water. It's (obviously!) easy to popper fish from a distance. But don't hesitate to alternate your "pops" with breaks on well-marked spots where a predator may have ambushed you. For fishing in open water, the HEDORAH 75F can easily swim "Walking the dog": by alternating pops and uncoordinated acceleration, you've got a little miracle recipe that sometimes works on big perch! If you're looking for pike on the edges, we recommend a slow, steady "walking the dog" without popping your HEDORAH. The bites will be less violent but more numerous and frank!
