About this lure

The Malosi Talo 180P is a revolutionary diving popper designed to bridge the gap between aggressive surface noise and the subsurface finesse of a stickbait. Built from ultra-durable dual-layer ABS, this lure is engineered to withstand the brutal strikes of New Zealand Kingfish and Tuna while delivering a unique action that pushes air underwater rather than splashing it forward.

  • Diving Popper Action – Forces air beneath the surface to create a dense, shimmering bubble trail that mimics a fleeing baitfish.
  • Tail-Weighted Design – Ensures exceptional casting distance even in strong winds, making it ideal for land-based or boat anglers.
  • Versatile Retrieve – Can be swept like a stickbait for a swimming action or worked with a pop–pause cadence to trigger reaction bites.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction – Features a 2mm stainless steel through-wire and dual-layer ABS shell to handle trophy-sized predators.
  • Pre-Rigged Hardware – Comes ready to fish with high-strength BKK split rings and hooks (5X trebles and singles).
