Bream Micro Poppers

Recommended Posts

Here is my series of Bream poppers. The ones pictured are all tied using #12 Dry Fly Hooks. I also use the same body(Wapsi #PPO-#10) with #10s.

Your poppers are some of the most artistic flies I have ever seen. I love the work. I am thinking about delving into the world of poppers one of these days... you make it look like so much fun!

Are these premade popper bodies? I like the premade and the foam poppers but I really love to sand and create my own balsa poppers and design them. That can really be lots of fun

Yes. I use pre-formed bodies whether in cork or soft and/or hard foam.

 

While it is true that you will catch Dinks with these. In my experience at least when larger Bream will not normally strike larger poppers, they have been more willing to take these little guys. Perhaps they are more easily mistaken as natural in these smaller sizes.

very well done, also, all color combinations look good.

are you actually going to fish them ?

These particular examples were tied for my board display when I tie at some event.

 

But yes. These are in my fly boxes whenever I am fishing for Bream. Most of these

little guys were the first ones I started doing for my Bream fishing. The only difference

is that for the ones I fish the tail is Puglisi Silky Fibers and I usually don't bother with the

flash.

Alright it is offical, I hate you. Your poppers are stunning man. Everytime I see them my jaw drops. Let me know when you are ready to come over and paint mine! :D
