Malosi Staple Talo 150P

A long-casting diving popper built to provoke explosive strikes from GT, tuna, kingfish and mackerel with a dense subsurface bubble trail and aggressive wobbling action.

The Malosi Staple Talo 150P is a unique subsurface diving popper designed for anglers chasing aggressive pelagic predators in challenging offshore conditions. Unlike traditional surface poppers that push water above the surface, the Talo forces air beneath the surface, creating a thick bubble trail and erratic wobbling action that predators find extremely difficult to ignore.

Its tail-weighted design delivers exceptional casting distance, allowing anglers to reach distant feeding zones, reef edges and bait schools with ease. Once retrieved, the lure dives just under the surface and produces a wide, wobbling swim with a dense stream of bubbles that imitates a fleeing or injured baitfish.

The Talo’s slow-rising buoyancy adds another deadly trigger. After each sweep, pause and allow the lure to rise back toward the surface before sweeping again to restart the action. This stop-start presentation often provokes violent reaction strikes from predators waiting below.

Highly versatile, the Talo can be burned quickly to produce an “S”-shaped swimming action, swept like a stickbait, or worked with pops and pauses to vary the presentation depending on fish behaviour. Built tough with dual-layer ABS construction, stainless steel through-wire reinforcement and heavy-duty BKK hooks, the lure is ready to handle brutal strikes and extended battles with powerful fish.

If you want something different in your topwater arsenal that produces a unique bubble trail and aggressive subsurface action, the Malosi Staple Talo 150P is a serious predator trigger.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Talo different from a standard popper?
Instead of pushing water above the surface, the Talo forces air below the surface to create a dense bubble trail and subsurface wobble that predators find irresistible.

What species is the Talo 150P best suited for?
It is ideal for large pelagic predators such as GT, kingfish, tuna and Spanish mackerel.

How should I retrieve the Talo diving popper?
Use long sweeps with pauses to let the lure rise, or burn it faster to create an “S” swimming action and bubble trail.

Is the Talo designed for long-distance casting?
Yes. Its tail-weighted design allows excellent casting distance, helping anglers reach bait schools and offshore structure.
