FlyTyer16 Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Where does everybody get their popper bodies, and what do you do with them. I want to get into tying hard body poppers but don't know where to get them. All help is appreciated! Quote
sleeper Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Try Fishtales, in Calgary. I have also seen them at Wholesale Sports. Quote
SilverDoctor Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 being an old timer I still use traditional Balsa wood. I like it better than foam, lighter to cast. Floats higher than foam and a couple of layers of lacquer make it tough. I get mine at the hobby shop in square lengths and then turn em on a drill and sand to shape. Let me know if you would like more info. Haven't pinch the barb on this one yet. Quote
FlyTyer16 Posted June 2, 2015 Author Posted June 2, 2015 Ok thank you! I think I've seen balsa at Micheals for cheap Quote
Vitalshok Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Balsa is dirt cheap I made a few I use a little pocket knife and my wife's nail file works like a dam Quote
