i cut my teeth fishing on popping atoms , ( i also remember 16"min.)my dad had a huge tackle box , nothing but blue and white popping atoms . i have not bought one in years , they turned to junk saddly . for my lite stuff i switched to yozuri hydro poppers and bigger gear i use gibbs but even they are shakey i went through 1/2 doz pencil poppers that split down the middle . all were replaced at no charge but still a pain.

I particularly like the old 40s, juniors, and reverse atoms. Some of the best old plugs out there. Bob Pond also did more to bring the stripers back from the brink than most people realize. Stripers Unlimited, research on chemical effects on striper fecundity and recruitment, hatcheries.
