Hey Brian, the paint is Testors Aluminum for the head, tail is gray marabou with pearl Krystal Flash. Skirt is just gray saddle hackle and the legs are gray/black centipede.
One thing with epoxy that may be a particular problem for you guys is humidity. Hard to get it to cure correctly with high humidity. I try to do all my epoxy work in the winter, it seems to help. Also the longer the cure time for epoxy the less it will tend to yellow over time. 5-min yellows the fastest, 20 min. alot less, but still will after a while. I usually lose my popper 1st to some small pickerel before that happens though.
