Terry Dodge Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 Has anyone ever tried tying any ear-plug poppers? I've been messing around with them for a couple years now and can tell you that they do work and they do catch fish. Some ear plugs work better than others and some ear plugs just can't be used at all. Just wondering if anyone else has tried tossing these things and looking for any suggestions on maybe tying them in a better way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike G Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 Terry, I never did, but my hat is off to you for seeing the connection and application. Tell me, do th ear plugs work better before or after you have used them as ear plugs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Clifford Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 We use these all the time at work, and somebody told me they work great for floating jigheads as well. I've been meaning to experiment with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Dodge Posted February 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 These yellow type (Bubble Yum) ear plugs have some kind of coating on them that keeps them from sucking up water and becoming twice as big and heavier than all get out to cast like some of the other type of ear plugs do.

Guest rich mc Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 i have also seen the soft floating jigs heads made for the lindy rigs they have eyes and good coloring just run a needle thru for rubber legs and add some ta`il material, hooks have a nice gap. picked a bunch up on a clearance sale about 10 for $2. rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
