Stippled Popper 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2017 Here are some things I've come up with this year. Three cupped Wapsi Poppers with the same basic painting design Balsa body on 6/0 Orvis Pike Hook Balsa Long Tom / Walt Holman. I like my green. Balsa Gerbubble Frog Balsa Gerbubble White. My least favorite of the bunch Balsa Pike head on 2/0 Orvis Pike Hook Painted Balsa take on a Stewart's Deer Hair Dancing Frog take on a Hula Popper.

Bryon Anderson 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2017 I'm sure you've heard this hundreds of times over, but your poppers are just gorgeous; head and shoulders above anything I've ever seen. It's a good thing I don't have your talent, because if I made mine that pretty I would be afraid to fish them! Thanks for sharing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike West 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2017 Fantastic work as usual. I got to meet Walt a couple times and get some pointers from him. Another other very talented man who was willing to share and teach. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rocco 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2017 Good to see a Gerbubble again. That frog pattern need not be moved a bit -- it will draw them out of the thick stuff just siting there. Excellent job! Rocco Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stippled Popper 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2017 Fantastic work as usual. I got to meet Walt a couple times and get some pointers from him. Another other very talented man who was willing to share and teach. Thanks to you AND TO THE OTHERS! A couple of the members of the Gulf Coast Council of the Federation are putting together a digital copy of the two papers Walt Holman wrote back in the 50s. The only thing left to do is add photos of some of his poppers to Mr. Holman's original drawings. Plans are when it is ready to post it as a download on the Council website.
