Sorry, Mrs Reinartz my sixth grade teacher who screamed punctuation would have been appalled at those tying instructions!  Hope this is better.

"Tiger popper"  Made from tupelo gum wood, on a Mustad #8, 33903.  Painted yellow, then airbrush the top in fluorescent orange, then airbrush black over the orange, (sprayed through a comb). Top coat with Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails.  Tie in a tail of black marabou (about the same length as the hook), tie in barred orange rooster hackle for the collar and then orange legs.

It takes about ten or twelve minutes per popper not counting drying times.
