Working at the vise

Hello Everyone!! I am Mark and I make and sell Fly Fishing Poppers and tie flies, too, here in eBay. I have been fly fishing for over 40 years and tying flies for over 30 of those (with 12 of those as a pro tier for many National and International companies). Currently, I totally hand make some awesome looking and producing Bass Poppers and Panfish poppers. They are superb because I hand form them from a softer closed cell foam, hand paint them up nice with latex paints in fish catching colors and patterns and they float and pop better than their hard bodied cousins (that you can buy the components for at your local fly fishing store, but don't work nearly as good as these do) and the soft foam helps the fish "hang on" a little longer for a good hook set. I make many sizes and on hooks from #10's up to 2/0's for now (with 4/0 hooks comming soon). I sell and mail these all over the world. I also tie "Secrets" and "Golden Secrets"  fly assortments (shiner minnow patterns in sizes #14 up to #4's on 4XL shank hooks) and what I have been told is a wrong name, but Wooly Worm (no hackle Wooly Buggers) Dark Olive with black tailing that catch fish any place I have used them and all of the buyers have loved them.

Poppers that catch fish

Fly Fishing in Ohio can be awesome, too...Not only Bass (both large and small mouth), but bluegill, trout (browns, bows Salmon and steelhead in the Lake Erie Tributaries), Walleye in early spring during their spawn run & in Pymatuning Res along with crappie, Northern Pike and Musky (and I almost forgot ... yes... carp and Channel Catfish on a fly...they hit...Honest...Have caught many on my long rods). Ohio is within easy reach of many of the Eastern Trout States...PA, WV, VA, NY, DE, MD, KY, TN & MI. All this has made me a believer in Ohio and that IT, too, is a fly fishing state, you just have to know what fly to be casting...
