Upon looking at your pic more closely it looks like one layer of the paint is separating from the others. You need to narrow down which coat that is and adress that too.

I'm surprised no one suggested this... it appears that you're seating your belly grommet after going through all your other precautions: sealing, sanding, etc. The simple act of driving the flange's lip flush to the lure body breaks your primer/paint "seal" and creates a potential water invasion point. Water gets behind the sleeve and collects under the flange... unless you apply some epoxy to the swivel hole and under the grommet before seating.

Bingo ,,, bet thats it ,,, always wondered when having a hard time getting a wire through a plug if it was scoring the sealer ... so many variables . |

poplar is interior wood for reason, it's junk!!!
swells up too much when it gets wet no matter where the intrusion is.
the water in not seeking a way out causing the layers of paint and primer to separate, it'd the expanision, if it were house siding, then the case may be different.
use a better wood

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
