First Popper Gill
Hi All. I've attached a picture of my first gill on the poppers I recently created. It's only 7 1/2", and tiny by your standards, but it's my first. It seemed that the gills could have cared less when the stick-on eyes fell off the popper. They just kept on attacking the bug.

Still rewarding to catch fish on your hand made poppers Bruce....That has to add some satisfaction to the catch....Congrats!

Congrats on your first one on a popper. It's a ball seeing them come up and take it off the surface.

That is the first of many I am sure! That topwater action is second to none in my book and when the water warms up there is nothing better. Congrats!
