Bass on a Popper

A little about bass on a popper. I need to do more, it is a total hoot!

If you enjoy fishing with a fly rod and, you must because here you are, there is something you just need to experience. Hooking a decent sized bass on a popper is a total HOOT!


I readily admit to being a trout guy...more specifically, a dry fly guy. From time to time I am talked into doing something different. One of those things was chasing the wiley bass. As I said, I am a dry fly guy and so I love to see the rise and the take. It was somehow natural for me to try a popper so I might experience the same thrill from a bass. Well, I did and it worked.


Following are a few articles/videos that I have found that most closely show and explain the things I have experienced with poppers and bass.
