    Default Bobber Poppers

    While browsing our local K Mart I found a pack of 5 bobbers for a buck. You usually see these hanging from a tree or caught on a snag. Anyhow a little super glueand some left over fly tying materials resulted in these poppers. i know this is not an original idea, but there are fun to make and should catch Mr Bass. End cost maybe 15 cents a popper.

    Wink Can't beat the price!

    Hi Panman,

    Whatever floats your hook! The bobbers are certainly a lot cheaper than prepared foam popper bodies. Your poppers look great. 8T

    Ha, hadn't thought of that, great idea. Now I know what to do with some of my old bobbers with those with broken springs or cracked stems. I usually take and covert them to slip bobber.

    thanks Tim for passing that along. gonna go dig in my tackle box and try it out this afternoon
