Do you love big bluegill?

Silicone hopper 2" long. Experiment from a piece of silicone from the wife's Orthotist. He had a small piece and gave it to me to try and this is what I came up with. It doesn't take paint or glue. I colored it with permanent magic marker and that's not working very well.

Thanks Jen for the compliment. I did determine that silicone isn't a tiers choice it's not user friendly at all, I guess that's why we have close cell foam but the silicone is heavy and I thought might sink but doesn't it sort of a sub surface fly after putting it in a glass of water. It's to heavy for the 2wt maybe the 4wt or 6wt will work. I'll be doing some more experimenting see if I can find a glue and paint that will adhere to it.
