Gurglers rock, and they're typically lighter than most poppers.

Yes they do.

But I gotta tell you, I had a BIG popper (#2) in a frog pattern on my leader
on Sunday and the bucket mouths were absolutely NAILING it. Better yet, it
was too big for the 'gills to get in their mouths (nothing against 'gills,
mind you, but I wanted bass.) And the extra weight actually seemed to carry
it through the wind a bit better than something light.

But what do I know? :-)

(and who, come to think of it, recalls that perhaps he and Stan were at
Penns together a few years back and may actually have been in the same
vicinity of Three Streamer (other)Stan's at one point....)
