Newbie, what type of foam ,do you use. Is it fairly dense, so you can shape it. I used to have a popper , probably balsa, with feathers . pike and bass loved it. can you get foam at a craft store, Looking good old 243
Nice kit .. It looks like you've been stealing a lot of your wife's nail polish :)
Those look great guys,cant wait to see the end results.
I buy the kits at Bass Pro, they are called Perfect Poppers and come in a wide variety of styles. I buy one kit of each and take my time tying them. I do sand and prep them a little before I make them, but I don't change the shape much, but with a file or sander I guess one could change the shape. The only thing I buy from the craft stores every now and then are the plastic containers to store them in, like the one you see here and small tube's of epoxy. I hope this helped. NOTFQuote:
