Yet again another bass popper and my trout slayer

Really Gage, their pretty darn easy. Use those pre-cut popper bodies. Stick em on a hook and paint them with nail paint (Sisters are good suppliers ). Splatter them with another color if you want to make spots. Then epoxy and/or nail polish

it and glue on some eyes. Then put on a tail of your choice. Easy

[smallieFanatic 0]

The stinger hooks are great for topwaters.
