=Matt 5.0= Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 I decided that since it's 25 degrees outside, I'd tinker with some baits! Went to BPS today and grabbed some pacs of Terminator Quick Skirts for spinnerbaits. Thanx to Tin for pointing them out. Took a black 5/8 popper, cut off the stock hooks and pulled off the stock skirt, exposing the peg... Add some Loc Tite superglue.... Slide new skirt on and presto... All that's left now is to add split rings, new Gamakatsu hooks and there ya have it. Pimp My Popper! Quote
Super User Gone_Phishin Posted January 27, 2008 Super User Posted January 27, 2008 Great idea, looks sharp. Now I don't have to worry about my skirts melting when the temp gets above 90*. ;D Quote
dumb_dog11 Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 looks nice, i did the exact same thing the other day with a friends hula popper. it was black and i only had the quickskirt that looks similiar to a rainbow trout...an interesting combination. Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted January 27, 2008 Super User Posted January 27, 2008 the other day i noticed my strike king buzzbait was lacking in the skirt department, so i took one of the chart./white elaztech ez skirts from the chatterbait kit i got as a gag gift and put it on the buzzbait. looks better than when i first got it ;D Quote

Super User Tin Posted January 27, 2008 Super User Posted January 27, 2008 LMAO, Popper Pimper. Cracker. ;D I knew those skirts would be perfect. Did you move the hook to the center 2 holes too? Quote
=Matt 5.0= Posted January 27, 2008 Author Posted January 27, 2008 Not yet. Put the white skirts on the white and green poppers tho, looks sweet. Quote
