Great seeing you Chum/Matt! I did a version of that jointed popper when I first started building as kind of a lark but fishing the canal as much as I did last season I started to think that if weighted heavy in the tail section to give it good heft in the current, it would work great in the ditch! So this season I will find out! I wanted it particularly for when I let the plug drift with the current so the joint gives the plug a little wiggle! I will let you know how it works! I am going to do some with the "V" joint I had on the swimmers!
Thanks Paul! That means alot coming from you!
