That guy holding the underwater camera must be out of air by now 😂

Another great build Franko.  Thank you for sharing your recipe for the Polyacrylic mid coat.  It is more than greatly appreciated.

So true about cedar. I am working on ten 2-piece swimbaits and have had chip-outs several times.

Man, I'll bet that popper shows up on your local doppler!

Thanks for explaining the Polycrylic...on how you prep it

At the 3 mins mark i already know this is gonna be a great build

Hey, remember those old sticker dart guns? The were a spring, a catch and a plunger-shaped "dart" with a shaft and suction cup. So what if you had a spring-loaded popper face?   When you popped it the front cup would compress the spring. Then the cup would spring back and kind of double-pop the lure.

Hey Franco, great video once again.
Hello from Maine, Kevin

Awesome lure! Keep up the great work!

...and again caught some new ideas which I will test as soon as possible in my workshop. Thank you !

i like the little frog popper.........:face-green-smiling:great job thank you

WOW!!! You really are a very talented man.

Good job Franco

I’d love to see a video on making a sinking stick bait for saltwater!! for the type of fishing i do in Sydney Australia I would really like to make one I just don’t know what to use to make it sink! Love the video!!!

Love the paint job you gave that. Great looking lure

Nice colors!

I do the opposite after watching Matt Stephen talk about his poppers so I have been weighting the tails and tying hair on the back hook so it sits more vertically and it amazes me that sometimes the fish will come up and grab the tail hook and pull it under like a bobber. I can fish about 10 minutes per cast now without all the long pauses. It'll pop and move about 3 to 6 inches if you want to fish slow

Great video and great looking lure

Thought of a video that others might like.How deep should a wire harness be inside a bait before its rips out? Have a couple baits with harnesses at diffrent depths. Have a force gauge tied to a hook hanger and rip them out.

I like to use a appropriate size glass bead in place of the nail head. Another great video. I really appreciate your content.

this is awesome man! just found your channel and im graduating with a degree im ocean engineering this year. im a big fisherman and also started making lures over the past year! About to take my FE exam!
