Philly 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2020 Nice looking popper. Red is a color I've never used for a popper. Let me correct that. I've done some poppers with red heads and white or yellow bodies. Seem to work well in salt water. I may have used them in fresh water for pike. I've got a bunch of the pre-formed soft foam bodies sitting around. But like denduke I'm bouncing off the wall, playing with a couple of new things. Welcome to the site. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trucha 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2020 I am a long time visitor but haven't posted much. I am from NM, Albuquerque but visit the San Juan. The hook size was a #12 I believe; I wanted to tie it small to chase bluegills but also took some smallmouths with it. The rainbow in my avatar is a 24" South Platte fish.
