I thought poppers were no good after dark??? I was getting some nice fish up to the low 20's last night on eels, dannys and needles. RIrockhound had given me a squid popper earlier in the season that i havent got a keeper on yet(he wanted a pic of my first keeper on it). So i decided to give it a shot. First cast i got a nice hit, next cast i hooked a decent fish , but it shook it before i got her in. Couple casts later something massive swirled up and slapped it, this splash was like 4ft around had to be a huge fish!!! Tried for another 20 minutes with a couple of light hits but no hookups before calling it a night. Are there certain conditions and structure where poppers work consitantly at night? Gonna give it a shot again tonight.
