Walt's Popper


Yeah, I know this blog is supposed to be about trout. As hundreds of other bloggers are writing about the breaking of spring and the warming of the waters and the inevitable trout fishing to follow - when spring shows up in my neighborhood my thoughts turn to Bluegills and Bass! Sure, I’ll be doing my share of trout fishing - going next weekend in fact - but just as importantly, I’ll be having a few after work rendezvous’ at our neighborhood pond. And unless I’ve run out of them, the end of my line will be showin’ off one of Walt’s Poppers. Say you’ve never heard of them? Well follow the link to a story done by Beau Beasley about Virginia’s Popping Bug King, Mr. Walt Cary.
