4 inch plopper 1
I wanted a smaller plopper that still had a deep, loud plop and cast well, so I made this. It weighs 32 grams, but is only 4" long. I made the front section with a deeper belly, so I could add more ballast lower, to make up for the shorter 2 1/2" front section. It worked, along with giving the front a V shaped profile, so there wasn't as much buoyant PVC in the belly. I also made the tail thinner from front to back, so it hangs just slightly tail down, and the helps it to plop at low speeds.
