The Black Jack – Starter Pack

Cast Frigg Popper out and then jerk your rod tip down in short, jerking motions, causing the bait to “pop”. Experiment with different cadences until you start getting bites – a “pop, pop, pause, repeat” cadence is a good place to start. Because of their ability to draw strikes, Frigg Poppers are most effective when fished around shoreline cover, so target overhanging brush, docks, laydowns, rock piles, jetties and seawalls.

How to rig

Poppers should be fished on a 6 1⁄2 foot medium power baitcasting rod paired to a high speed reel spooled with 10 to 15 pound monofilament. Because they have treble hooks, try using a more limber (slower action) rod like a crankbait rod to minimize lost fish. When working around shallow cover, try using a shorter, 6 foot rod to maximize accuracy. Match your rod and rigging to your target species.

The Hangover Hollow starter pack is great for an early morning cast when the Hangover starts. Fishing has always been a great hangover cure. The Black Jack Frigg Plug filled with some Well-Oiled Herring Fish Smack will help you catch a striped bass, which aids in forgetting how cruddy you feel. Even without the hangover this starter pack will help you catch MORE fish!
