I know there's a number of folks here that love using Gurglers and Gurgle Pops. Have any of you experienced this? If you coat the foam with something to help it maintain its floatation longer...what do you use?
Thanks!
I would first look at the weight of your hooks, are you using heavy wire hooks? Second what other materials are you using? Bucktail is way more buoyant than say marabou. What about chenille, are you using standard chenille or ice chenille? I've never had a problem w/ gurglers getting water logged, I use craft foam almost exclusively, I don't think that coating the foam would gain you much, maybe using more of it might help.
