    Default A few poppers

    Airbrushed and tied these last week. Can't wait for the fish to move shallow and work these around the banks.

    These are some I was playing around with. The bodies are made from backing-rod, this is used to fill in cracks and you can get it at hardware store in a roll and in different sizes. http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=...epot&FORM=IGRE
    These are tied using a #2 hook and are 2 1/2'' to 3'' long.

    Thanks guys. Doug they are the hard bodies and these are big poppers with a hook size being 1/0. The poppers are around 3'' to 3 1/2'' long. I tied one on Saturday while fly fishing to see how they would work and they are sweet and worked well on the 5 wt rod I was using.

    Is this also known as the "chuck and duck". ??? A 3" popper on a 5wt, you are a lot braver than me. I'd have the popper stuck somewhere not even remotely close to a fish. LOL

    Nice work on the poppers tho.
    GO BIG ORANGE !

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.
