Poppers, Gurglers, and Bream Bugs Oh My

Here are some new poppers and color combos I have been working on.  I also tied a gurgler in a new color combo.  I was lucky enough to be asked to join a Bluegill swap at flytyingforum.com.  I made two dozen bream bugs for the swap.  I really dont have a name for them so I am just calling them bream bugs.  I did a dozen in a black/rust combo and a dozen in a black/olive combo.  They were tied on a Mustad 3366 size 10.  Here they are:

    Those poppers are works of art. I like the foam bugs too. Good stuff.

    Awesome poppers, I especially like the white with the black dots, and also the variation in color on the legs is unique. I also like the concave face on the poppers, because it will create a slight ripple when move along the surface, which I am sure you know. I fish i lot of poppers and these are up there with the best I fish. Thanks for sharing the pics
