Popper Bodies

[JoeE]

Because of the snow and after shoveling 36+ inches. I headed down stairs to make popper bodies. I pulled out the Dremel and a mandel and made enough popper bodies to tie a few dozen later tonight or the weekend. How do you make your popper bodies or do you buy? what are your favorite colors. I like Carolina blue, white and black.

I did work on a few rods today as well. Good to have a few days off work but I'm ready to go back (and Greatful to have one).

What do you make your bodies from?

I use deer hair and pack it til my fingers bleed (literally).
See the 2010 swap thread..

I just enjoy fishing deerhair more than cork for whatever reason. I rarely ever have a sinking problem (and only after fishing a popper for a long while).

Here are some of my most used...
