I hate it when gills just nip at a popper and won't take it. Do you think they might fall for this or is it over kill?
I cut down some old beat-up cork and balsa poppers. I added a #8 hook to the popper hook shank using 12lb mono and wove ultra chenille through it and added just a bit of rabbit to the end. This won't do me much good this season.... too cold unless we get a few days of warm sunny weather to get the gills to the surface.... AND my Scott FR is currently in Colorado getting a new tip section.
