Poppers are a must have fly if you are fishing for billfish like marlin or sailfish. They also work on tuna & mahi-mahi as well. They are easy to tie and come in many different color combinations. The wounded baitfish version is a good all purpose popper, productive in almost any blue water situation which the game fish are chasing baitfish.
