Brian! I was trying to rate your photo, Black Magic, and what I thought was the fifth star for excellent was actually on the far left and gave it a rubbish, which it is NOT! Apologies for my error, those are some fishin' poppers!

haha no problem. that fly is a bit mangled from the but kicking the smallmouths gave it this weekend. I have been pouring a very thin layer of epoxy on them and results have been a very strong fly, but still not to heavy

I have been resisting tying deer hair poppers because I did not want to mess with spinning and packing. Now I can do foam with almost the same result. I have got to get the man room reclaimed and start replenishing the fly stock. Thanks for the idea B A B!!!!
