A diver from this morning....This fly tip to tail is 7 inches long...Hoping to entice some big boys this spring...

Smallie, what wt. rod do you use to throw that big beautiful bug? Gerry

GREAT :headbang:

Mark, I say Amen to what the guys say. We want you in here. You have contributed, (gut it out) Gerry

dear chase,

 

when I was in middle school about (12 years ago),we made bass poppers out of fancy pencils you now the kind that are glittery or shiny metallic or,

 

you can paint regular pencils with enamel paint or nail polish.cut hook length pieces like 5/0 2xl streamer hook size, drill a hole (with a drill press

 

please),off center of the pencil lead.the hole must be the size of the hooks eye so that you may slide and glue pencil blank on and or accomadate tail

 

(marabou etc.) I think I got the idea from Field and Stream.

nice popper

 

but whats the difference between spotted vs stippled :dunno:

...

 

I believe stippling is the method of placing colored dots to create a different color as well as creating degrees of shading. For shadiing, dots are placed close together for darker shadow areas and further apart for lighter shading.

For color, dots of different colors are placed close together and on top of each other to give the impression of another color; for instance, instead of placing orange dots, you would place red and yellow dots. Basically speaking, I think that is stippling.

You can check out Stipple's website for example of some of his black and white stippled drawing/renderings.

Of course you could know this and am just being funny.
