    Google "Boogle Poppers". You can buy 'em on Amazon and they come in all sizes and shapes. Very good little bass bugs and we've caught a bunch on them. Sometimes you can find seconds for less money as well. I really like them. Here's a nice smallmouth I caught on a black Boogle popper last weekend.

After awhile, popping deer at 100 yards with a rifle and reeling in bass with a huge mechanical advantage gets a little old.
        This is exactly why I’m getting into fly fishing!

          Upper Mountain Fork river in SE Oklahoma. Great little river for fly fishing. Lots of smallmouth, largemouth and goggle eyes that will straight hammer your popping bug.

            I have been fly fishing for about 10 years.

                  After setting up a few feeders and fed pens, we got the fly rods out yesterday.

                    We fished Saturday. It was tough. Caught a few rainbows and that’s it. Still great scenery and great company. Had an awesome weekend.

                        Very nice Shane. What river/creek is that?

                            I found a few formulas on YouTube. It was 5wt all purpose.

                              Exactly why I do it. Fooling a fish with a fly I made myself is way more rewarding than reeling one in on something I bought.

                                I finally got tapa talk reinstalled so I can start posting pictures again. Did a little urban angling with the boys this weekend. Not too bad for city fish.
