Slimy Salamander Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 (edited) I've made a time-lapse video showing how to design and build your own fishing popper cork. In the beginning of the video I demonstrate how to catch African Sharptooth Catfish, but this technique should work for many other catfish species elsewhere in the world as well. I believe that Redfish are targeted in a similar way in the US so perhaps this will be useful to someone.

FishCandy Posted April 22, 2018 Report Share Posted April 22, 2018 Great idea, and a nice mold tutorial. I especially liked your use of those interlocking pieces, rather than a clay bed. Did you also print those out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I opted for a significantly cheaper and faster printing material on those, but it's well worth the effort. Splitting the mold with clay is the only part of mold making I dislike and this makes it much easier, quicker and neater. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
