About this piece
The Daiwa Saltiga Frother 170F is a premium popper designed to entice surface-feeding predators with a fine bubble trail and captivating pop sound. Its deeply cupped upper lip and shallow lower lip create dense bubbles while staying just below the surface, preventing excessive diving on the retrieve.
Key features
- Deep upper cup and shallow lower lip for optimal bubble generation
- Vertical floating posture for quick response on the first jerk
- Weight-forward design maximizes casting distance without sacrificing buoyancy
- Stable flight profile resists crosswind imbalance
- Works rhythmically like a diving pencil bait with a tight pop action
Best for
- Topwater strike fishing for tuna, GT, and other offshore predators
- Calm to moderate surface conditions where subtler poppers shine
- Anglers who prefer a linear, responsive popper for cadenced retrieves
