Go to a craft store they sell foam in many different colors and its cheap to. Make sure its 2mm atleast thats what I like and use.

I have to agree with crappiekid24. You can make your own different colored foam bodies using the sheet foam. Either tie with foam strips directly or cut pieces (strips) and superglue them together to get the thickness of a body you want and cut the body out of the glued pieces. I don't even buy the premade foam bodies anymore. We sometimes have to use our own ingenuity to get what we need.

I bought a muli pack at Walmart with 13 different colors in it. $4.47

Thanks guys...I'll check it out.

I know this sounds wierd but I 've found earplugs work good! plus the fish cant hear e'm.

You can order them from DPPoppers.com or buy the foam and use contact cement to glue them together.I made some punches out of old alum.arrows. Take the arrow and cut it to about 5" and then stick it in your drill and punch them out by the dozens in no time.

I use two different kinds of foam and this way I don't need to use glue at all. I use the thin foam (2mm) that has been mentioned, but I also have pretty much the same colors in High Tack Adhesive Foam and stick them together to make a multi color body.
