Fly of the Month

Foil Pencil Popper. Walt Holman and Jim Freres are credited with popularizing this fly based on the original Rapala lure. A balsa body is fastened to a hook, and foil is rolled onto the body with rubber glue. Eyes and optional dots are added before the body is epoxied. Mass production technique is the best way to make these poppers. On mild days in late fall and winter, bass and speckled trout will attack with vigor. Redfish are also huge fans of foil poppers.
