You wanted a light weight popper. I'm working on one. Here's a preview. Not sure how I'm going to finish it out yet

when you hold it up, it sort of has the shape of a cobra's head

Do you think there is enough foam to make it float?

I have some ideas. I'll post a pic when done. That's not foam. It's Balsa.

I have about a dozen in various stages of completion and all different sizes. I first started with the store bought hard foam type like the big one in the picture, then I began to tinker with Balsa wood. I like piddling around. Question for you Ultra light fishers, what sizes do you typically chunk? Or I guess a better question would be what's the largest size you can get away with?
